Check the picture below.
well, we want only the equation of the diametrical line, now, the diameter can touch the chord at any several angles, as well at a right-angle.
bearing in mind that <u>perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal</u> slopes, hmm let's find firstly the slope of AB, and the negative reciprocal of that will be the slope of the diameter, that is passing through the midpoint of AB.

so, it passes through the midpoint of AB,
so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 4/3 and runs through (3 , 5/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
When it says y varies directly with x it just means that y and x are proportional/equal to each other. The constant of variation and the constant of proportionality are the same thing just different way of saying it so they can confuse you and make your life miserable. Since y and x are proportional to each other and the constant of proportionalty is -5 to make an equation that represents a line you use the formula y=mx+b. That is the slope of the line. With that formula let's first plus in the x so we have y=m2+b. The formula for direct variation is y=kx as well that's good to know and it's good to memorize all these formulas. Math becaomes easier when you have the process down pat and you just need to plug numbers into different equations, expressions, and scenarios. Do m = [y1 - y2] / [x1 - x2] and you'll get the answer.
Answer:
there are no values of S
that make the equation true.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
It should be A. -12^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the box B, you have to multiple 3x and -4x. 3 * -4 is -12 and the two x's become squared. Making your answer -12x^2
