Line A passes through the points (-8, 5) and (-5, 4). Line B passes through the points (0, 1) and (4, -1). Which of the followin

g describes the relationship between line A an line B?
1. Lines A and B are parallel, because they have opposite reciprocal slopes.
2. Lines A and B are parallel, because they have the same slope
3. Lines A and B intersect, because their slopes have no relationship.
4. Lines A and B are perpendicular, because they have opposite reciprocal slopes.

\stackrel{\textit{\LARGE Line A}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{-8}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{4})} ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{4}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{-5}-\underset{x_1}{(-8)}}} \implies \cfrac{4 -5}{-5 +8}\implies -\cfrac{1}{3} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\stackrel{\textit{\LARGE Line B}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-1})} ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-1}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{0}}} \implies \cfrac{-1 -1}{4 +0}\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, and that parallel lines have equal slopes, well, those two slopes above aren't either, so since they're neither, and they're different, that means that lines A and B intersect.

We want to find the zeros of this polynomial:
slava [35]

Answer:

x=-3        x=-1            x=2         x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = (x^2 + 4x + 3)(x^2 – 4)

Set this equal to zero to find the x intercepts

0 = (x^2 + 4x + 3)(x^2 – 4)

Using the zero product property

(x^2 + 4x + 3) =0      (x^2 – 4)  =0

Factor

(x+3)(x+1) =0            (x-2) (x+2)=0

Using the zero product property

x+3 =0  x+1 =0          x-2 =0  x+2 =0

x=-3        x=-1            x=2         x=-2

How do you solve this equation . Q=3a+5ac
mr_godi [17]
A "solution" would be a set of three numbers ... for Q, a, and c ... that
would make the equation a true statement.

If you only have one equation, then there are an infinite number of triplets
that could do it.  For example, with the single equation in this question,
(Q, a, c) could be (13, 1, 2) and they could also be  (16, 2, 1).
There are infinite possibilities with one equation.

In order to have a unique solution ... three definite numbers for Q, a, and c ...
you would need three equations.

A swimming pool can be filled in 18 hours if water enters through a pipe​ alone, or in 25 hours if water enters through a hose a
pychu [463]
I am not sure, but this is what I got:
 <span>Pipe ALONE = 18 hours 

Pipe ALONE in 1 hour = 1/18 of the pool 

Hose ALONE in 1 hour = 1/25 of the pool 

TOGETHER in 1 HOUR = 1/18 +1/25 = 43/450 

TOGETHER they will fill the pool in 450/43 hours 

So 5/6 of the pool will take 5/6 X 450/43 = 2250/ 258 = 8.7209302 hours OR 

8 hours AND 43.26 minutes ANSWER

Hope this helps!
