Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope
The slope of the line shown is 
Therefore, the slope of the parallel line will also be 
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
rectangle area = 144 cm
Formula: A= L*H
The give the length which is 16
144 = 16*H
Since they gave u the area instead of the height, work backwards
144/16 = 16/16 *H
9 = H
Now you have the length and height
Length: 16
Height: 9
Perimeter is when you add up all the sides
The top and bottom of the rectangle is the length which is 16 so
16 + 16 = 32
The left and right side of the rectangle is the height which is 9 so
9 + 9 = 18
Now add then both
32 + 18 = 50
So the perimeter of the rectangle is 50
Hope this helped!
8x+3y=9
-8x. -8x
3y = -8x+9
3y/3 = (-8x+9)/3
y = -8/3x +3
so, slope is -8/3
Since they're vertical angles, they're equal in degree measure
since they're equal, we can make the two expressions equal to each other
5a - 1 = 2a + 20
add 1 to both sides
5a = 2a + 21
subtract 2a from both sides
3a = 21
divide both sides by 3a
a = 7
now, plug the answer you found for a into one of the two expressions
5a - 1 becomes (5*7) - 1, which equals 34
to double check that they're equivalent (since they're vertical angles)
2a + 20 becomes (2*7) + 20, which equals 34
both angles are 34 degrees!
