Answer:

The equation of the line is y - 3 = -2(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The slope of the line which passes through the points (x1 , y1) and

  (x2 , y2) is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

- The product of the slopes of the perpendicular lines = -1

- That means if the slope of a line is m then the slope of the

  perpendicular line to this line is -1/m

- The point-slope of the equation is y - y_{1}=m(x - x_{1})

* lets solve the problem

∵ A given line passes through points (-4 , -3) and (4 , 1)

∴ x1 = -4 , x2 = 4 and y1 = -3 , y2 = 1

∴ The slope of the line m=\frac{1-(-3)}{4-(-4)}=\frac{1+3}{4+4}=\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

- The slope of the line perpendicular to this line is -1/m

∵ m = 1/2

∴ The slope of the perpendicular line is -2

- Lets find the equation of the line whose slope is -2 and passes

 through point (-4 , 3)

∵ x1 = -4 , y1 = 3

∵ m = -2

∵ y - y1 = m(x - x1)

∴ y - 3 = -2(x - (-4))

∴ y - 3 = -2(x + 4)

* The equation of the line is y - 3 = -2(x + 4)

Aiyanah made 12 withdrawals of $175.25 each from her bank account. Then she made 17 deposits of $235.66 to her same account that
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The overall change is $1903.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us approach this problem step wise

1.Firstly let us calculate all 12 withdrawal of $175.25

12*$175.25= $2103

2. Let us calculate all the deposits made 17* $235.66 = $4006.22

With these figures we can calculate the overall changes as

= $4006.22-$2103= $1903.22

PLEASE HELP ME!! PLEASE!

1. There is no "h" in f(x) = log(x). The question is nonsense.

2. The log function is defined for arguments greater than zero. You're probably expected to select D, though A and B could also be correct.

3. Same deal. The log function is defined for x > -2, but the domain could be restricted to x > 2. You're expected to select FALSE.

4. Same deal. Choose B, though D is also correct.

5. C is the proper choice. (See discussion of the log function, above.)
