The complete question is;

when graphed on a coordinate plane, Bumby avenue can be represented by the equation y = -4x - 7. Primrose Avenue can be represented by the equation 8x + 2y = 17. Are these two parallel?

A) They are parallel because their slopes are the same

B) They are not parallel because their slopes are the same

C) They are parallel because their slopes are opposite reciprocals

D) They are not parallel because their slopes are opposite reciprocals

Answer:

Option D: They are not parallel because their slopes are opposite reciprocals

Step-by-step explanation:

Bumby avenue is represented by the equation y = -4x - 7 while Primrose Avenue can be represented by the equation 8x + 2y = 17.

Now, the general formula for slope intercept is;. y = mx + c.

Where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept.

This means the slope of bamby is - 4 while that of Primrose is 8.

The slopes are not the same and so options A and B are not correct.

Now, -4 is an opposite reciprocal of 8/-2.

But an opposite reciprocal means that both lines on the graph are perpendicular to each other.

Thus, option C is wrong because they are not parallel.

So correct option is D.

i am failing geometry and was wondering if my answers were right im really trying to get my grade up can someone please help tha
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

1)b

2)d)80/360×36π≈25.12cm²

4)d)32.5

5)c)135°

6)d)4π/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) because as we know

Circle equation

=(x-a)²+(y-b)²=r²

=(x-5)²+(y+1)²=36 (given)

=(x-(+5))²+(y-(-1))²=6²

So

C(5,-1)and r=6

2)as we know area of sector

=Theta/360×πr²

=80/360×6²π

80/360×36×3.14

80/10×3.14

=25.12

4)to figure out 4 we have to separate the shape into 2 parts

First  semi-circul

Second rectangle

So the parameter of the shape

=Circumference of semi-circul + the parameter of the rectangle

=[10π×½+2(10+3.4)]-10 (as the dashed line is not a part of parameter)

=[15.7+26.8]-10

=32.5

5)3π/4

3×180/4

540/4

135

6)240°

240°×π/180°

4π/3

Can anyone help me out here !
ddd [48]
Okay, so we’ll use sin in this case. You could use cos too, I just like sin. Sooo

sin(?) = 39/89
? = sin^-1(39/89) <— make sure you calculator is in degrees mode, not radians when doing this calculation!
? = 25.989° ≈ 26°
