Analyze the columns below and complete the instructions that follow. column a column b the slope of the line through the points (-8,15)and (-8,-9) the slope of the line through the points(3,-10) and (3,11) compare the quantity in column a with the quantity in column b. a. the slope in column a is greater. b. the slope in column b is greater. c. the slopes in the two columns are equal. d. the slopes in the two columns are undefined.

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

the answer to question 1 is -8, 28.
