Where will the lines y= -2/5x + 1 and y= -2/5x - 2 intersect?

Answer:

Never

Step-by-step explanation:

Their slope is the same so they will go down the same distance every time, and since the first one touches the y-intercept at 1 and the other one touches the y-intercept at -2, it is completely impossible for them to ever intersect

part 2. Find the value of the trig function indicated, use for that Pythagorean theorem to find the third side if you need it.

Answer: $\bold{5)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\sqrt{11}}{6}\qquad 6)\ \tan \theta =\dfrac{8}{17}\qquad 7)\ \cos \theta = \dfrac{4}{3}\qquad 8)\ \cos \theta = \dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{10}}$

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem is: a² + b² = c² , where "c" is the hypotenuse

$5)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}{\text{hypotenuse of triangle}}=\dfrac{3\sqrt{11}}{18}\quad \rightarrow \large\boxed{\dfrac{\sqrt{11}}{6}}$

Note: (15)² + (3√11)² = hypotenuse² → hypotenuse = 18

$6)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}{\text{hypotenuse of triangle}}=\dfrac{8}{17}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{8}{17}}$

Note: 8² + 15² = hypotenuse² → hypotenuse = 17

$7)\ \tan \theta=\dfrac{\text{side opposite to}\ \theta}{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}=\dfrac{20}{15}\quad \rightarrow \large\boxed{\dfrac{4}{3}}$

Note: hypotenuse not needed for tan

$8)\ \cos \theta=\dfrac{\text{side adjacent to}\ \theta}{\text{hypotenuse of triangle}}=\dfrac{2}{2\sqrt{10}}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{10}}$

Note: 2² + 6² = hypotenuse² → hypotenuse = 2√10

What is the area of this figure???

pshichka [43]

Answer:

24 mm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 4 x 1/2 = area of the triangle

4 x 3 = area of the rectangular top left

1 x 6 = area of the bottom rectangle

3 x 4 = 12 x 1/2 = 6

4 x 3 = 12

6 x 1 = 6

6 + 12 + 6 =24

Jim and his dad are building a rectangular flower bed. They have a total of 35 feet of landscaping timber to use, and they want

Mama L [17]

The perimeter is 35. If we were to change the width, which is one of the dimensions of the flower bed, The perimeter will change. This means that perimeter will no longer be 35. So in order to keep the perimeter as it is, if we change one dimension, we must also change the other. Let's solve for the length, using the formula to see how much the length changes from. p = 2l + 2w 35 = 2l + 2(15) 35 = 2l + 30 5 = 2l 2.5 = l We must increase the length from 2.5 feet. This is because decreasing one dimension will decrease the perimeter. But if we increase the other dimension as well, it will restore the perimeter to where is was initially.
