Answer:

parallel line slop2 = -5/4

perpendicular line slope = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2 lines are parallel, they will have equal slopes.

Therefore, the slope of a line parallel to y = 1/4 - 5/4 x will be -5/4

If 2 lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. So the slope of the perpendicular line = -1 ÷ -5/4 = 4/5

In △ABC , m∠A=53°,m∠B=17°, and a=27. Find the perimeter of the triangle.

sdas [7]

Using the Law of Sines (sinA/a=sinB/b=sinC/c) and the fact that all triangles have a sum of 180° for their angles.

The third angle is C is 180-53-17=110°

27/sin53=b/sin17=c/sin110

b=27sin17/sin53, c=27sin110/sin53

And the perimeter is a+b+c so

p=27+27sin17/sin53+27sin110/sin53 units

p≈68.65 units (to nearest hundredth of a unit)

Jay spent ten more than three times the number of hours on his science fair project than jamie spent on her project jay spent 43

Aliun [14]

Why did both of their names have to start with the same letter

x=jay hours
y=jamie huours

x=10+3y
x=43

so
43=10+3y
minus 10
33=3y
divide 3
11=y

jamies spent 11 hours
