Answer:

2x = 54, 3x = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

135 degrees = 2x + 3x

5x = 135

x = 27

2x = 54

3x = 81

. Given ????(5, −4) and T(−8,12):

damaskus [11]

Answer:

a) $y=\dfrac{13x}{16}-\dfrac{129}{16}$

b) $y = \dfrac{13x}{16}+ \dfrac{37}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points: $S(5,-4)$ and $T(-8,12)$

Since in both questions,a and b, we're asked to find lines that are perpendicular to ST. So, we'll do that first!

Perpendicular to ST:

the equation of any line is given by: $y = mx + c$ where, m is the slope(also known as gradient), and c is the y-intercept.

to find the perpendicular of ST <u>we first need to find the gradient of ST, using the gradient formula.</u>

$m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

the coordinates of S and T can be used here. (it doesn't matter if you choose them in any order: S can be either x_1 and y_1 or x_2 and y_2)

$m = \dfrac{12 - (-4)}{(-8) - 5}$

$m = \dfrac{-16}{13}$

to find the perpendicular of this gradient: we'll use:

$m_1m_2=-1$

both $m_1$ and $m_2$ denote slopes that are perpendicular to each other. So if $m_1 = \dfrac{12 - (-4)}{(-8) - 5}$ , then we can solve for $m_2$ for the slop of ther perpendicular!

$\left(\dfrac{-16}{13}\right)m_2=-1$

$m_2=\dfrac{13}{16}$ :: this is the slope of the perpendicular

a) Line through S and Perpendicular to ST

to find any equation of the line all we need is the slope $m$ and the points $(x,y)$ . And plug into the equation: $(y - y_1) = m(x-x_1)$

side note: you can also use the $y = mx + c$ to find the equation of the line. both of these equations are the same. but I prefer (and also recommend) to use the former equation since the value of 'c' comes out on its own.

$(y - y_1) = m(x-x_1)$

we have the slope of the perpendicular to ST i.e $m=\dfrac{13}{16}$

and the line should pass throught S as well, i.e $(5,-4)$ . Plugging all these values in the equation we'll get.

$(y - (-4)) = \dfrac{13}{16}(x-5)$

$y +4 = \dfrac{13x}{16}-\dfrac{65}{16}$

$y = \dfrac{13x}{16}-\dfrac{65}{16}-4$

$y=\dfrac{13x}{16}-\dfrac{129}{16}$

this is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to ST and passes through S

a) Line through T and Perpendicular to ST

we'll do the same thing for $T(-8,12)$

$(y - y_1) = m(x-x_1)$

$(y -12) = \dfrac{13}{16}(x+8)$

$y = \dfrac{13x}{16}+ \dfrac{104}{16}+12$

$y = \dfrac{13x}{16}+ \dfrac{37}{2}$

this is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to ST and passes through T

A garden is to be made in the form of an isosceles triangle. The equal side must be 4ft. Less than twice the base. The perimeter

Natali5045456 [20]

P = 77.
side (S1, S2) = 2(B) - 4.
P = S1 + S2 + B.
77 = (2B - 4) + (2B - 4) + B.
77 = 2B - 4 +2B - 4 + B.
77 = 5B - 8.
77 + 8 = 5B.
85 = 5B
B = 85/5
B=17 ft

Is -4/-5 positive or negative

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Positive

Step-by-step explanation:

A negative divided by a negative can cancel out to make a positive. So, $\frac{-4}{-5} = \frac{4}{5}$ .
