k = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite the equations in their slope-intercept forms:

y = \frac{1}{3}x + 2\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)

y = kx + 12\:\:\:\:\:(2)

In order for Eqn(2) to be perpendicular to Eqn(1), the slope of Eqn(2) must be the negative reciprocal of that of Eqn(1). Therefore, k = -3.

Find the value of x, y, and z in the parallelogram below.
telo118 [61]

The values of x, y, and z of the parallelogram are -19°, -115° and 27°

<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>

A parallelogram is a two-dimensional geometrical shape whose sides are parallel to each other. It is a type of polygon having four sides (also called quadrilateral), where the pair of parallel sides are equal in length. The Sum of adjacent angles of a parallelogram is equal to 180 degrees.

for a parallelogram opposite angles are equal

-4x -1 = 75

-4x = 76

x = 76/-4

x = -19°

sum of adjacent angles are supplementary

(-y-10) + 75 = 180

-y + 65 = 180

-y = 180 - 65

-y = 115

y = -115°

Also

4z - 3 + 75 = 180

4z + 72 = 180

4z = 180 - 72

4z = 108

z = 108/4

z = 27°

In conclusion, the values of x = -19, y = -115, z = 27

A bread recipe calls for 1/3 cup of butter. You want to make 1/2 of a batch. How much butter do you need?
Sergio [31]
Do 1/3 x 1/2 to get 1/6, or you could think, 1/3 divided by 2, which would equal 1/3 x 1/2

Show that vertical opposite angles are equal​
pashok25 [27]
Vertical Angles: Theorem and Proof
Theorem: In a pair of intersecting lines the vertically opposite angles are equal. It can be seen that ray \overline{OA} stands on the line \overleftrightarrow{CD} and according to Linear Pair Axiom, if a ray stands on a line, then the adjacent angles form a linear pair of angles.
