Important: If you're discussing squares, please express "the square of x" as x^2 (not as x2).

Please note that your y=x^2+3 is NOT a line. I will assume (probably incorrectly!) that you meant y=2x+3. The slope of this line is 2, so the slope of any line perpendicular to y=2x+3 is -1/2.

Now use the point-slope equation of a straight line:

y-8 = (-1/2)(x-1) (answer)

Answer:

A. (3, 8) and $2\sqrt{2}$

B. (2, 4) and $2\sqrt{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint formula: $(\frac{x1+x2}{2} ,\frac{y1+y2}{2})$

Distance formula: $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1}) ^2+(y_{2}-y_{1}) ^2 }$

A. plug in the points in the formulas

(4, 7) and (2, 9)

Midpoint:

$(\frac{4 + 2}{2} , \frac{7+9}{2} )=6/2, 16/2 = (3,8)$

Length:

$\sqrt{(2-4)^2+(9-7)^2}=\sqrt{4+4} =\sqrt{8} =2\sqrt{2}$

B.

(5, 5) and (-1, 3)

Midpoint:

$(\frac{5-1}{2} , \frac{5+3}{2} )=4/2,8/2=(2,4)$

Length:

$\sqrt{(-1-5)^2+(3-5)^2} =\sqrt{-6^2+-2^2} =\sqrt{36+4} =\sqrt{40} = 2\sqrt{10}$

Can you consider marking my answers as brainliest lol it would mean a lot. Hope this helped.

What is the counter example for 'if you do not eat beef then you're not vegetarian'

slamgirl [31]

Answer: If you're not vegetarian, then you do not eat beef.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dismiss the 'if' and 'then':

- you do not eat beef

- you're not vegetarian

Now, all you have to do is switch their places:

- you're not vegetarian

- you do not eat beef

Now add the 'if' and 'then' back:

If you're not vegetarian, then you do not eat beef.

DO NOT SKIP!! Let’s see who’s smart enough to work out the problem if u get it correct I’ll mark u as BRAINLIEST SHOW THE WORK P

Answer:

y=10.1(x)

x= $\frac{y}{10.1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is said in the problem that y would represent how much money she earns and x represents the number hours she works.

so it also said that the amount of Jessa earns is proportional to the amount of time she works .

finding y will be easy dividing 252.50 by 25 will give you 10.1

so how did we get that equation

y will represent the amount and x will represent the hours

How do you find degree measures? How would you solve this question?

MrRa [10]

A. a=145 b=35 c=145 d=145 e=35 f=145 g=35

b. These are the pairs of vertical angles: a & c, b & 35, d & f, e & g.

Hope this was helpful.
