Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slop to each other.
So first solve for y.
Slope will be the coefficient of x in y=mx+c form.
m is the slope. Then negative reciprocal this slope and in this case the answer is -1/5

Identify the type of observational study​ (cross-sectional, retrospective, or​ prospective) described below. A research company
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Prospective study

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A cross-sectional study, also known as transverse study, is a type of observational study that analyzes data from a population at a specific point in time.</em> This kind of observation is used if cases cannot be identified a priori or if the prevalence of the disease or condition needs to be determined.

Cohort studies are when two or more groups of subjects are followed over time to see if they develop some disease or if some event occurs, there are two type of cohort studies, prospective and retrospective. <em>Prospective studies (or follow-up studies) follow subjects with different exposures until some point in time where something happens or the study ends</em>, r<em>etrospective studies use historical data</em> to make comparisons based on risk factors or exposures that occurred before the events.

Considering the information given and the observational study exposed to the question, we can conclude that we are talking about a prospective study because data is collected over the next 10 years.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Find the value of x and y
Natalija [7]

Hello and Good Morning/Afternoon:

<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:

<u>What does the information want:</u>

  • value of x
  • value of y

<u>Let's gather some information</u>:

  • ΔA'BC' and ΔABC are similar triangles

             ⇒ Angle B is shared by both triangles

             ⇒ Angle A' and A are the same, as they are both on parallel

                   lines, A'C' and AC, and both angles are formed with the

                   same line AB

                 ⇒ by the <em>Angle-Angle Theorem*</em>, they are similar triangles

<u>If they are similar triangles</u>:

   ⇒ their side lengths are proportional to each other

  • let's find x's value

          ⇒ let's set up a proportion

                 \frac{A'B}{AB} =\frac{A'C'}{AC} \\\frac{30}{x+30} =\frac{14}{22} \\14(x+30) = 30*22\\14x + 420 = 660\\14x = 240\\x = 17.143

  • let's find y's value

          ⇒ let's set up a proportion

                 \frac{BC'}{BC} =\frac{A'C'}{AC} \\\frac{y}{y+15} =\frac{14}{22} \\22y=14(y+15)\\22y=14y+210\\8y=210\\y=26.25

<u>Answer:</u>

  • <u>x= 17.143</u>
  • <u>y = 26.25</u>

Hope that helps!

Help last one thanks guys for helping but explain in a way i would understand
Serggg [28]
OK, like I explained in the last one KCF, (Keep Change Flip) so our problem is: 
 8/7÷5/8 So lets Keep 8/7 and change the divide sign to multiplication sign. and then for Flip you flip 5/8 to 8/5. So now our real problem is: 8/7*8/5= (8*8=64) and (7*5=35). So we have 64/35, now you just need to change this improper fraction to a proper one... message me if you have any trouble :)
