Perpendicular lines have an opposite reciprocal slope, therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is:
-1/7
So far, y = -1/7x + b. Now we need to plug in (7, 7) into x and y for our equation.
7 = -1/7(7) + b
Simplify the right side
7 = -1 + b
Add 1 to both sides
8 = b
The equation of the perpendicular line is:
y = -1/7x + 8
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
First in order to solve this problem we need to simplify the answer choices.
A. 6×8 + 6×6 = 48+ 36
B. 12×4 + 12×1=48+12
C. 4×44 + 4×3=176+12
D. 8×6 + 8×4 = 48+32
As you can see there is one expression that is equivalent to 48+12. Answer choice B is correct.
Complete the square: x^2 + 24x = 17
Identify the coefficient of x. It is 24. Take half of that coefficient: 24/2 = 12.
Now add the square of 12 to both sides of x^2 + 24x = 17
x^2 + 24x + 144 = 17 + 144
Write in factored form:
(x + 12)^2 = 161
Taking the square root of both sides:
x+12 = plus or minus
