Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point, (-2, 9) and the linear equation of a <u>horizontal line</u>, y = 6:

The linear equation of a horizontal line with a slope of zero (<em>m</em> = 0) is y = <em>b, </em>for which the y-intercept is (0, <em>b</em>). <u>Perpendicular lines</u> comprise of the intersection of two lines forming 90° angles.  

Since we are given the equation of a horizontal line, then we can assume that <em>the line that intersects a horizontal line must be a </em><u><em>vertical line</em></u> in order to form perpendicular lines.

The linear equation of a <u>vertical line</u> with an undefined slope is <em>x</em> = <em>a</em>, for which the x-intercept is (<em>a</em>, 0). Vertical lines have an <u>undefined slope </u>because these lines do not have any horizontal change. Thus, when you try to solve for its slope, the denominator will have a difference of 0, making the mathematical operation undefined.

We can use the <u>x-coordinate</u> of the given point, (-2, 9), to formulate an equation for a vertical line: x = -2.

Therefore, the equation of the line that goes through y = 6 is x = -2.

Attached is a screenshot of the graph of both equations, y = 6 and x = -2, showing that their intersection form 90° angles, making them perpendicular lines.

Determine the range of the following graph
Ierofanga [76]

Given:

The graph of a function is given.

To find:

The range of the graph.

Solution:

We know that, the domain is the set of input values and range is the set of output values.

In a graph, domain is represented by the x-axis and range is represented by the y-axis.

From the given graph it is clear that there is an open circle at (-8,-8) and a closed circle at (3,4). It means the function is not defined at (-8,-8) but defined for (3,4).

The graph of the function is defined over the interval -8. So, the domain is (-8,3].

The values of the function lie in the interval -8. So, the range is (-8,4].

Therefore, the range of the function are all real values over the interval (-8,4].

You estimate that there are 45 marbles in a jar. The actual amount is 82 marbles. Find the percent error. Round to the nearest t
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

45.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The original amount is 82

But the wrong amount is 45

So we will have to calculate the percentage for the error

82-45

37

So %error= 37/82 ×100

=3700/82

=45.121~45.1( to nearest tenth)

So the final answer is 45.1%

What is X I need help i dont know how to do this
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

x = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle BDH

The angle must add to 180 degrees

36+ 39 + DHB = 180

75 + DHB = 180

DBH = 180-75

DHB = 105

DBH + x = 180 since it is a straight line

105+ x = 180

x = 75
