Answer:

-56/9

Step-by-step explanation:

By Vieta's formulas,

$r + s = -\frac{4}{3}$ and $rs = \frac{12}{3} = 4.$ Squaring the equation $r + s = -\frac{4}{3},$ we get

$r^2 + 2rs + s^2 = \frac{16}{9}.$ Therefore,

$r^2 + s^2 = \frac{16}{9} - 2rs = \frac{16}{9} - 2 \cdot 4 = -\frac{56}{9}}$

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Step 1, all the exponents are increased by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first incorrect step occurred in Step 1, where all the exponents were increased by 4.

This is mathematically incorrect due to exponential rules. When distributing exponents inside parentheses, we have to multiply the existing exponents inside the parentheses by the exponent outside the parentheses.

For example, (x²)³ is not x²⁺³, but rather, x⁽²⁾⁽³⁾.

We multiply the exponents instead of adding them together.

Therefore, the correct Step 1 should multiply all the variables' exponents by 4.

Steps 2 and 3 are correct since we do add the exponents when multiplying exponents with the same base, and we do subtract exponents with the same base when dividing.

PLEASE HELP<br>L has y-intercept (0,5) and is perpendicular to the line with equation y=1/3x+1
marin [14]

Answer:

y=-3x+5

Explanation:

Given a line L such that:

• L has y-intercept (0,5); and

,

• L is perpendicular to the line with equation y=(1/3)x+1.

We want to find the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given as:

\begin{equation} y=mx+b\text{ where }\begin{cases}m={slope} \\ b={y-intercept}\end{cases} \end{equation}

Comparing the given line with the form above:

y=\frac{1}{3}x+1\implies Slope,m=\frac{1}{3}

Next, we find the slope of the perpendicular line L.

• Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

Let the slope of L = m1.

Since L and y=(1/3)x+1 are perpendicular, therefore:

\begin{gathered} m_1\times\frac{1}{3}=-1 \\ \implies Slope\text{ of line L}=-3 \end{gathered}

The y-intercept of L is at (0,5), therefore:

y-intercept,b=5

Substitute the slope, m=-3, and y-intercept, b=5 into the slope-intercept form.

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y=-3x+5 \end{gathered}

The equation of line L is:

y=-3x+5
