Answer:

the perpendicular slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the original slope .

Step-by-step explanation:

example:  lets use the points (5,3) ( 10,7)

                 The slope is 5/4

so we need a line of    -4/5 (perpendicular) that passes through 5,3

Hope that helps

In the triangle below, b = _____. If necessary, round your answer to two decimal places.
lara [203]
Angle B=180-(38+31.6)=110.4
by law of sin
sin B/b=sinA/A
sin(110.4)/b=sin38/25
b=25*sin(110.4)/sin(38)=38.06

Is this a function or a non function?​
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

This is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do the Vertical Line Test you can see that the line passes through only one dot at a time. Therefore it is a function. If the line passed through more than one dot at a time then it wouldn't be a function.

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

3(x - 2) + 8 = 2(x + 5)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. (Parenthesis) Distribute:                                                                               3x - 6 + 8 = 2x + 10
  2. Combine like terms:                                                                                     3x + 2 = 2x + 10
  3. {Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides:                    x + 2 = 10
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides:                      x = 8

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                                               3(8 - 2) + 8 = 2(8 + 5)
  2. (Parenthesis) Subtract/Add:                                                                         3(6) + 8 = 2(13)
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                         18 + 8 = 26
  4. Add:                                                                                                               26 = 26

Here we see that 26 does indeed equal 26.

∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.
