Answer:

b perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

all that is needed to do is the Y2 - y1 / X2 - X1 formula and then compare the two slopes making sure they are inverse opposites

Line 1) -7 -8 / -3 -2 X= 3X

Line 2) -3 - 0 / 12 - 3 X = -1 / 3X

Because they are inverse opposites of each other they are perpendicular had they had the exact same slopes they would have been parallels.

An animal shelter houses only cats and dogs, and there are 25% more cats than dogs. If there are 40 cats, how many dogs are ther

Inessa [10]

X is the number of dog
y is the number of cats , y=40
25% of x is 25*x /100=25x/100=x/4
<span>and there are 25% more cats than dogs means y+ x/4=x implies 40=(3/4)x
</span>x=160/3=53
so the number of dogs is 53 and the number of cats is 40
the total number is 53+40=93

TRI has vertices T(-3, 4), R(3, 4), and I(0,0). Is TRI scalene, isosceles, or equilateral?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph your triangle!

Then, do the distance formula. So from T to I is 5 units, R to I is 5 units, and T to R is 6 units. As two side lengths are congruent, the triangle is isosceles.

Hope this helps!
