Euclid of Alexandria is known as the father of modern geometry.
Answer:
B)5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
"3x + 5y = 15."
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
The slope-intercept form is
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y=mx+b
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.
5y=15−3x
Divide each term by "5" and simplify.
5y/5=15/5−3x/5
"5" and "5" cancel each other out
Divide 15 by 5
y=3-3x/5
Reorder 3 and −3x/5
y=-3x/5+3
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
y=−3/5x+3
Slope:-3/5
The equation of a perpendicular line to y=−3x/5+3 must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.
<em>m</em>perpendicular=−1/(−3/5)
Simplify the result.
mperpendicular=5/3
hope this helps!
The distance between the two endpoints is :
14.212 or about 14.21 ( rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
● (-3/8) ÷(-1/4)
Flip the second fraction by putting 1 instead 4 and vice versa.
● (-3/8)* (-4/1)
-4 over 1 is -4 since dividing by 1 gives the same number.
● (-3/8)*(-4)
Eliminate the - signs in both fractions since multiplying two negative numbers by each other gives a positive number.
●( 3/8)*4
● (3*4/8)
8 is 2 times 4
● (3*4)/(4*2)
Simplify by eliminating 4 in the fraction.
● 3/2
The result is 3/2
