Find the slope of the line through the pair of points.<br> (13, 5) and (3,5)
Ronch [10]

Answer: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

So the slope of a line is equal to rise over run, or the change in x over the change in y. We can solve for the change in x and the change in y by finding their differences. For the math, we use the formulas y2 - y1/x2 - x1. Filling in this formula we get, (5-5)/(3-13), which is equal to 0/10. Because 0 divided by anything is 0, the answer here is 0.

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=3x-2 that passes trough the point (-9,5)
ElenaW [278]

\huge\boxed{y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x+9)}

First, we'll find the slope of the new line. The first line has a slope of 3. Take the negative reciprocal of this (Flip the numerator and denominator, then multiply by -1) to get -\frac{1}{3} for the new slope.

Then, we'll use the point-slope form to make the new equation, where m is the slope and (x_1,y_1) is a point on the line:

\begin{aligned}y-y_1&=m(x-x_1)\\y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x-(-9))\\y-5&=-\frac{1}{3}(x+9)\end{aligned}

If a^2+b^2= 4 and ab = 5, what is the value of<br> (a+b)^2?<br> A. 10<br> B. 12<br> C. 14<br> D. 16
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b)^2

(a+b)(a+b)

FOIL

a^2 + ab+ab + b^2

Combine like terms

a^2 +2ab + b^2

Rearranging

a^2+b^2 +2ab

We know a^2+b^2 = 4  and ab= 5

4 + 2(5)

4+10
