Answer:

option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular means = slope_1 \times sope_2 = -1\\

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciproclas. That means their product equals -1.

If you know the slope of a line, to find the slope of a perpendicular line, flip the slope and change the sign.

Given line: slope = -2

-2 is the same as -2/1

Flip it: -1/2

Change the sign: 1/2

Answer: 1/2

What is the sum of all the integers between the square root of 19 and the square root of 77?
Artist 52 [7]
Since we are only dealing with integers, we do not need to worry about decimals. Therefore, finding the exact values of sqrt(19) and sqrt(77) is not important. We can just estimate.

19 is between 16 and 25 (which are 4^2 and 5^2), so the square root of 18 is some number between 4 and 5.

77 is between 64 and 81 (which are 8^2 and 9^2), so the square root of 77 is some number between 8 and 9.

So the integers (whole numbers) that are between our two sqaure roots are 5, 6, 7, and 8.

Add them up and we have our answer.

5+6+7+8 = 26
