Determine which of the lines are parallel and which of the lines are perpendicular. Select all of the statements that are true.
slega [8]

Answers:

Line A is parallel to line D.

Line A is perpendicular to line C.

Line C is perpendicular to line D.

=====================================================

Explanation:

Let's use the slope formula to calculate the slope of the line through (-1,-17) and (3,11)

(x_1,y_1) = (-1,-17) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (3,11)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{11 - (-17)}{3 - (-1)}\\\\m = \frac{11 + 17}{3 + 1}\\\\m = \frac{28}{4}\\\\m = 7\\\\

The slope of line A is 7

-------------

Now let's find the slope of line B.

(x_1,y_1) = (0,4) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (7,-5)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{-5 - 4}{7 - 0}\\\\m = -\frac{9}{7}\\\\

-------------

Now onto line C.

(x_1,y_1) = (7,1) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (0,2)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{2 - 1}{0 - 7}\\\\m = \frac{1}{-7}\\\\m = -\frac{1}{7}\\\\

-------------

Lastly we have line D.

(x_1,y_1) = (-1,-6) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (1,8)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{8 - (-6)}{1 - (-1)}\\\\m = \frac{8 + 6}{1 + 1}\\\\m = \frac{14}{2}\\\\m = 7\\\\

------------------------------

Here's a summary of the slopes we found

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2}\text{Line} & \text{Slope}\\\cline{1-2}\text{A} & 7\\\cline{1-2}\text{B} & -9/7\\\cline{1-2}\text{C} & -1/7\\\cline{1-2}\text{D} & 7\\\cline{1-2}\end{array}

Recall that parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts. This fact makes Line A parallel to line D.

Lines A and C are perpendicular to one another, because the slopes 7 and -1/7 multiply to -1. In other words, -1/7 is the negative reciprocal of 7, and vice versa. These two lines form a 90 degree angle.

Lines C and D are perpendicular for the same reasoning as the previous paragraph.

Line B unfortunately is neither parallel nor perpendicular to any of the other lines mentioned.

You can use a graphing tool like Desmos or GeoGebra to verify these answers.

The number of hours per week that the television is turned on is determined for each family in a sample. The mean of the data is
Viktor [21]

Answer:

There are approximately 171 families in the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentile meaning:

When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.

Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 23 hours or less for the week. The 14th percentile of the data is 23 hours.

This means that 24 is 14% of the total number of families.

Approximately how many families are in the sample?

Using a rule of three.

24 - 0.14

x - 1

0.14x = 24

x = 24/0.14

x = 171.4

Rounding to the nearest integer

There are approximately 171 families in the sample.

The legs of a right triangle are 12 cm and 16 cm. What is the length of the hypotenuse? 15 cm 17 cm 20 cm 28 cm
GalinKa [24]
Answer: 20 cm

To solve this, use the Pythagorean Theorem, a² + b² = c², where a and b are the legs of the right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
**The Pythagorean Theorem only works for right triangles.**

Substitute in the values.
a² +  b² = c²
12² + 16² = c²

Solve for c, the hypotenuse.
12² + 16² = c²               
144 + 256 = c²
400 = c²
c = √400
c = 20
