If AB is parallel to CD and the slope of AB is -3, what is the slope of CD

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of parallel lines are equal.

If two lines are parallel (that means they are at the same angle, they are always the same distance apart and they never cross), then they have the same slope. Both lines have slope -3

Answer 2

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a rule in math that if two slopes are parallel, they must have the same slope. Let's answer the question with this first.

So AB is parallel to CD, meaning they must have the same slope. If AB's slope is -3, then so must CD's. That's the answer to the question.

Coming back to the parallel slope rule, why does this work? Well, if two lines are parallel, it means they never will touch each other, meaning they rise, fall, bend, curve, etc... at the same rate. The slope is the change in how much the line rises divided by the change in how much it runs (moves horizontally). That proves the rule.

The perimeter of a rectangular piece of land is 280m. People divide the land into two small pieces: a square, a rectangle. The total perimeter of the two small plots is 390m. Calculate the area of ​​the original piece of land.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the Rectangular piece of the land = 12 + 1/2 m = 25/2 m

Breadth of the Rectangular piece of the land = 5 + 1/5 m = 26/5 m

If 4 small square flower bed of side length 1 m are made at center.

To find: Area of the rectangular land , Perimeter of the rectangle and Area of land left when flower bed are mad.

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × ( length + breadth )

= 2 × ( 25/2 + 26/5 )

= 2 × ( 177/10 )

= 177/5 m

= 35.4 m

Area of the rectangular land = Length × Breadth

= 25/2 × 26/5

= 5 × 13

= 65 m²

Area of a flower bed = side × side = 1 × 1 = 1 m²

Area of 4 flower bed= 4 × 1 = 4 m²

Area left in the land = 65 - 4 = 61 m²

Therefore, Perimeter of the land is 35.4 m

Area of land is 65 m²

Area of the land left after flower beds is 61 m²

The base of a triangular field is three times its height. If the cost of cultivating the feild at $36 per hectare is $486, find its base and height.

Please explain also​

Answers

Answer:

Formula of the area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h (where 'b' is the base and 'h' is the height)

1 hectare = $36

$486 = 13.5 hectares

13.5 hectares = 1/2 × b × h

To get b × h, you use the reverse of the formula. Hence:

13.5 = 1/2 × b × h

13.5 ÷ 1/2 = b × h

               = 27

27 is b × h.

The question states that the base is three times the height. Hence:

b = 3u

h = 1u

b × h = 27

        = 3u × 1u

Thus, we need to find one value which is three times the other, in order to get a product of 27.

Factors of 27:

1 × 27

3 × 9

9 is three times of 3. Thus, the base is 9, while the height is 3.

The perimeter of a triangle is 42 centimeters. The longest side is 2 centimeters less than 3 times the shortest side and the pother side is 2 centimeters more than twice the shortest side. Find the length of each side.

Answers

Answer:

  7 cm, 16 cm, 19 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the length of the shortest side in cm. The longest side is 3s-2, and the other side is 2s+2. The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths.

  P = s + (3s -2) +(2s +2)

we have

(P.s: must be 2 answers pls)
Thanks

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

2% increase on 1750=

1750 * 1.02 = 1785

1785 per month gives 1785 * 12 = 21420 per year.

Divide 21420 by 48 weeks = 446.25 per week

Divide 446.25 by 45 hours = 9.92 per hour

Multiplication is the process of multiplying. Alicia's earnings per hour for the year 2017 is £9.92 per hour.

What is multiplication?

Multiplication is the process of multiplying, therefore, adding a number to itself for the number of times stated. For example, 3 × 4 means 3 is added to itself 4 times, and vice versa for the other number.

The monthly salary of Alicia in 2016 was £1750, which was increased by 2% in 2017. Therefore, the salary in 2017 will be,

(100%+2%) of £1750

= 1.02 × £1750

= £1785 per month

Since a year has 12 months, therefore, the earnings for the complete 2017 year will be,

Total Earning = 12 × £1785 = £21,420

As given Alicia worked 45 hours per week for 48 weeks, therefore, the number of hours will be

Number of hours = 45 hours × 48 weeks = 2,160 hours

Now, the earnings per hour can be written as,

Earning per hours = £21,420/2,160 hours = £9.92/ hour

Hence, Alicia's earnings per hour for the year 2017 is £9.92 per hour.

What are the steps to convert a number from standard notation to scientific notation​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take 4200 as an example.

To convert 4200 into scientific notation, follow these steps:

- Move the decimal 3 times to left in the number so that the resulting number, m = 4.2, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10

- Since we moved the decimal to the left the exponent n is positive

n = 3

- Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10^n

= 4.2 × 10^3

Therefore, the decimal number 4200 written in scientific notation is 4.2 × 10^3 and it has 2 significant figures.
