Write the equation of a line that is BOTH PARALLEL and PERPENDICULAR

Answer:

Parallel line: y=-x+27

Perpendicular line: y=x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Rearrange '2x+4y=16' to fit this format:

2x + 4y = 16

x+y=8

y=-x+8

<u>Parallel line</u>

If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. So our equation goes from y=mx+b to y=-x+b. We know the line goes through (12,15), so we sub this in to get b:

15=-12+b

b=27

So our equation is y=-x+27

<u>Perpendicular line</u>

If two lines are perpendicular, the slope of one line is the negative inverse of another: eg, if a line had slope=3, the line perpendicular to it would have slope=-1/3. The negative inverse of -1 is 1, so our equation goes from y=mx+b to y=x+b.We know the line goes through (12,15), so we sub this in to get b:

15=12+b

b=3

So our equation is y=x+3

What is the area of this figure?<br><br><br> 49.5 in²<br><br> 66.5 in²<br><br> 84 in²<br><br> 91 in²
zubka84 [21]

The given figure can be divided in two parts 1) Square with side 7 in 2) A right triangle with base 12 in and height 7 in.

1) Area of square = side^{2}

Side of the square is 7 in.

Area = 7^{2} =49in^{2}

2) Area of triangle = \frac{1}{2} .base . height

Area of triangle =\frac{1}{2} (12)(7) =42in^{2}

Area of polygon= Area of square+ Area of triangle

Area of polygon = 49+42 =91 square in.

Area = 91in^{2}

The volume of a rectangular prism has 5376 cubic inches the prism is 14 in long and 16 in wide how tall is the prism
Mkey [24]

Answer:

The height of the prism is 24\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the rectangular prism is equal to

V=LWH

In this problem we have

V=5,376\ in^{3}

L=14\ in

W=16\ in

substitute in the formula and solve for H

5,376=(14)(16)H

H=5,376/[(14)(16)]

H=24\ in
