Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The equation of the given line I is

-3y + 4x = 9

3y = 4x - 9

y = 4x/3 - 3

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = 4/3

If two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line.

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 12, 6) is - 3/4

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = - 3/4, x = - 12 and y = 6 into y = mx + c. It becomes

6 = - 3/4 × - 12 + c

6 = 9 + c

c = 6 - 9

c = - 3

The equation becomes

y = -3x/4 - 3

Complete the tables to determine if the expressions are equivalent. If the expressions are equivalent, name the properties that
jok3333 [9.3K]
I don’t know how to necessarily complete the tables but i know they are equivalent

1. 3(x-5)
3 (x) = 3x
3 (-5) = -15

that is the distributive property thus it equals

3x - 15

2. 3x - 15

they’re the same

AB= 4x + 7 and BC = 20x - 5 <br> AB ~= BC
Mariana [72]

The value of the variable x is 3/4

<h3>What are congruent segments</h3>

Congruent segment are segments with equal or congruent lengths.

From the information given, we have that line AB is approximately equal to line BC. This is represented as;

AB = BC

Where;

  • AB = 4x + 7
  • BC = 20x - 7

Now, let's equate the expressions

4x + 7 = 20x - 5

collect like terms

4x - 20x = - 5 - 7

- 16x = - 12

Make 'x' the subject of formula

x = -12/-16

x = 3/4

Thus, the value of the variable x is 3/4

If a^2=b^2, does a=b? Explain and justify your answer.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

  not necessarily

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the square root of both sides, you have ...

  ±a = ±b

Those four cases resolve to two unique cases:

  a = ±b

The given equation will be true if a = b or if a = -b. If a and b are constrained to have the same sign, then a=b is the only solution.
