x = [tex]\sqrt{164[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the hypothenuse, you need to do [tex]8^{2} + 10^{2}[/tex]. Which equals 164. Therefore, since [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex], a=8, b=10, and c=[tex]\sqrt{164[/tex].

What are the slopes of the perpendicular lines?

1: y=-5/2x-8
2: y=5x
3: y=3x-8

Answers

Answer:

1. 2/5

2. -1/5

3. -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

the parpendicular slope is found by taking the original slope and finding the opposite reciprocal. so just flip the slope and make it the opposite sign

-5/2  --->    2/5

+5/1  --->    -1/5

+3/1  --->    -1/3

Answer:
1. 2/5
2. -1/5
3. -1/3

Explanation:
There are two key concepts that we have to understand in order to answer this question:

1) The given equations are organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b. Here’s what the variables mean:

Y= the y coordinate
M=the slope
X= the coordinate
B= the y intercept

From the given equations we can now identify the slopes as -5/2, 5 and 3.

2) Perpendicular lines have slopes that are NEGATIVE RECIPROCALS of each other.

Example: Line A has the slope 8. A line that is perpendicular to line A would have a slope of -1/8.

Example #2: Line B has the slope -2/3. A line that is perpendicular to line B would have a slope of 3/2 (two negatives make a positive).

Now that we understand these two concepts, we need to look at the slopes of the given lines and determine their negative reciprocals to find the slopes of their perpendicular lines.

1. y=-5/2x-8
We can see that -5/2 is in the place of “m” in y=mx+b. The negative reciprocal of -5/2 is 2/5, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=-5/2x-8 is 2/5.

2. y=5x
There is no “b” value in this equation, but we can still identify 5 as “m”. The negative reciprocal of 5 is -1/5, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=5c is -1/5.

3. y=3x-8
The negative reciprocal of 3 is -1/3, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to line y=3x-8 is -1/3.

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

After the course, I climbed to the top of a pole using only ropes and carabiner clips, and then I rappelled off the top. I even made a new best friend. Oh, by the way, the food was delicious. It tasted better than my mom's! (But don't tell her.)

Answer:

Oh boy this is a lot of work

Step-by-step explanation:

So 1st thing 1st, order the numbers from least to greatest. Then, find the median (which is the middle number). After that find the 1st Quartile and 2nd Quarile (you have to find the middle of the first half and the middle of the second half if it is two numbers, add them up and divide it by 2). Also, find the greatest and the least numbers. Then make the box and whisker plot. Since i can't make the full plot in brainly i will give you the steps to make it.

Make a number line. Label it from the least number which is 21 to the greatest number which is 30.Make a box from the 1st quartile which is from 33.5 to 39.5.Split the box on number 24.Make the whiskers which mean make a straight line from the left of the box to the least number which is 21 and make another straight line from the right of the box to the greatest number which is 30.That's all the step to make a box-and-whisker plot!
