The answer would be -3/2
A reciprocal is the inverse of a number.
When using this in fractions just switch the numerator and denominator. This is done by dividing the fraction by one, but in the case of a negative fraction you would divide by negative 1.
Remember (a²-b²)=(a-b)(a+b)
solve for a single variable
solve for y in 2nd
add y to both sides
x²-7=y
sub (x²-7) for y in other equaiton
4x²+(x²-7)²-4(x²-7)-32=0
expand
4x²+x⁴-14x²+49-4x²+28-32=0
x⁴-14x²+45=0
factor
(x²-9)(x²-5)=0
(x-3)(x+3)(x-√5)(x+√5)=0
set each to zero
x-3=0
x=3
x+3=0
x=-3
x-√5=0
x=√5
x+√5=0
x=-√5
sub back to find y
(x²-7)=y
for x=3
9-7=2
(3,2)
for x=-3
9-7=2
(-3,2)
for √5
5-7=-2
(√5,-2)
for -√5
5-7=-2
(-√5,-2)
the intersection points are
(3,2)
(-3,2)
(√5,-2)
(-√5,-2)
I would love to help you but you haven’t given the sets
9712/42=231.238 should be your answer
Answer:
Perpendicular would be -7
Parallel would be 7
Because m = slope and the m is connected to the x (mx)
