Answer:

No, L and S are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines go directly opposite from each other, making a + looking arrangement. While parallel lines go in the exact same direction, making a = looking arrangement. The only way both S and L can both be perpendicular to R is if they are both parallel to each other. An illustration by yours truly is placed below to represent it visually.

Now, if this were on the outside of a sphere, then it would be totally possible to have three lines all be parallel, because they can curve with the sides of the sphere and create a triangle with all right angles.

3x+2y=3y-2 line 1 x+y=10 line 2 solve for x/y

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

x/y=1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2y=3y-2

3x=3y-2y-2

3x=y-2

y=3x+2

x+y=10

x+3x+2=10

4x+2=10

4x=10-2

4x=8

x=8/4

x=2

2+y=10

y=10-2

y=8

x/y=2/8=1/4

Shawn earned $2.77 per day for three days as interest on his $1,000.00 investment. What percent interest did he earn in total? G

Nady [450]

Answer: He earned 0.831% interest in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Shawn earned $2.77 per day for three days as interest on his $1,000.00 investment.

Interest per day = $2.77

Interest in 3 days = 3 x ($2.77)

= $8.31

Invested amount= $1000

Required percentage of earnings = $\dfrac{\text{Interest earned in 3 days}}{\text{Initial investment}}\times100$

$=\dfrac{8.31}{1000}\times100=0.831\%$

Hence, he earned 0.831% interest in total.

Plz do have mercy and help me

Nikitich [7]

I have mercy:

8x and 9x+5 (the angles) form a right angle so 8x+9x+5=90 which means x is 5 and plugging it back into the angles 8x we get 40 sinceBHR and angle 8x are vertical angles they are equal to each other and so it's equal to 40
