Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2+5x+4=0\\\\x^2+x+4x+4=0\\\\x(x+1)+4(x+1)=0\\\\(x+1)(x+4)=0\iff x+1=0\ \vee\ x+4=0\\\\x=-1\ \vee\ x=-4$

The point nearest to the origin on a line is at (4, -4). Find the standard form of the equation of the line.

Scrat [10]

Just did a specific one of these; let's do the general case.

The point nearest the origin is (a,b).

The line from the origin through the point is

$bx - ay = 0$

The line we seek is perpendicular to this one. We swap the coefficients on x and y, negating one, to get the perpendicular family of lines. We set the constant by plugging in the point (a,b):

$ax + by = a^2 + b^2$

$ax + by -( a^2 + b^2) = 0$

That's standard form; let's plug in the numbers:

$4 x - 4 y - 32 = 0$

$x - y - 8 = 0$

The sum of two polynomials is 8d5 – 3c3d2 + 5c2d3 – 4cd4 + 9. If one addend is 2d5 – c3d2 + 8cd4 + 1, what is the other addend?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a. $x = 6d^5 - 2c^3d^2 + 5c^2d^3 - 12cd^4 + 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

$8d^5 + 3c^3d62 + 5c^2d^3 - 4cd^4 + 9$

Now

if one is added i.e.

$2d^5 - c^3d^2 + 8cd^4 + 1$

Now let us assume the other polynomial be x

So,

$8d^5 + 3c^3d62 + 5c^2d^3 - 4cd^4 + 9 = x + (2d^5 - c^3d^2 + 8cd^4 + 1)\\\\x = 8d^5 + 3c^3d62 + 5c^2d^3 - 4cd^4 + 9 - (2d^5 - c^3d^2 + 8cd^4 + 1)\\\\$

$x = (8d^5 - 2d^5) + (-3c^3d^2 + c^3d^2) + 5c^2d^3+ (-4cd^4-8cd^4) + (9-1)\\\\x = 6d^5 - 2c^3d^2 + 5c^2d^3 - 12cd^4 + 8$

Similar triangles are triangles that have the same interior angles and the corresponding sides are proportional, that is, for triangles STU and XYZ we have the proportion:

$\frac{ST}{XY}=\frac{TU}{YZ}=\frac{SU}{XZ}$

The corresponding sides are congruent only if the proportion rate is 1, but that is not always true and it's not necessary.

Therefore the correct option is B: False

If the corresponding sides are congruent, the triangles are congruent.

18. Two planes left an airport at the same time. One flew north at a set speed and the other

Andre45 [30]

Answer: plane A = 333.33mph

Plane B = 500mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Distance between the two planes = 2400miles.

Plane A flew North

Plane B flew south

Solution:

Let v represent plane A.

Let 2v represent plane B.

Distance between the two plane

v + 1.5* v = 3*v

7.5v = 2500miles

v = 333.33mph

Plane B has one and half times the speed of plane A

= 1.5 * 333.33

= 500mph
