Answer:

\sf\boxed{ \sf \dfrac{1}{2} \ is \ the\  slope  }

If lines are parallel or tangent, the slope remains same.

\sf \large\boxed{\sf m_1 \rightarrow  m_2}

If lines are perpendicular or normal, the slope becomes negatively inverse

\sf \large\boxed{\sf m_1 \rightarrow -(\frac{1}{m_2} )}

With this Here the line a is perpendicular to line b,

therefore using formula: \sf \large {-(\dfrac{1}{-2} )} \rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}

Choose two positive integers a and b, making sure that a<5 and b>80 . The width of a rectangular computer screen is a inch
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Dimensions of the screen are a minimum of 10 inches wide by 8 inches high. The difference between the height and width will be 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Height = H

Width = H + a

Area = Height x Width

b = H * (H + a)

b = H^{2} + aH

H^{2} + aH > 80

H^{2} + aH - 80 > 0

a<5 means 'a' can be a = 1, 2, 3, 4

Solving for H for each option of 'a' will give values of 'H' using the quadratic formula below

H = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

As 'a' and 'b' must be positive integers, H and W must be positive integers as well,

a = 1, H = 8.46, H = -9.46

a = 2, H = 8, H = -10

a = 3, H = 7.57, H = -10.57

a = 4, H = 7.17, H = -11.17

Based on above possible answers:

a=2, H=8

W = H + a

W = 8 + 2

W = 10

Dimensions of the screen are a minimum of 10 inches wide by 8 inches high. The difference between the height and width will be 2 inches
