Just did a specific one of these; let's do the general case.
The point nearest the origin is (a,b).
The line from the origin through the point is

The line we seek is perpendicular to this one. We swap the coefficients on x and y, negating one, to get the perpendicular family of lines. We set the constant by plugging in the point (a,b):


That's standard form; let's plug in the numbers:


Are the directions asking you to solve these ?
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically, this is an observational study because the researcher does not apply any treatment.
It's not an experiment because there is no experimentation involved. :)
It's not double-blind because in that case the researcher would have to apply something to two kinds of groups. one aware one the other not. not the case.
It's not D because The observations are comparing two kinds of subjects and they are not looking for a cause and effect.
The worth of Sarah's investment when she is 68 is $14,728.51.
<h3>What is the worth of the investment?</h3>
The formula that can be used to determine the worth of the investment is:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years = 68 - 18 = 50
$500 x (1.07)^50 = $14,728.51

We apply the Pythagorean theorem twice and obtain:
12 ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + (15-d) ^ 2
9 ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + d ^ 2
We observe that it is a system of two equations with two unknowns whose solutions are:
(x, d) = (-36/5, 27/5)
(x, d) = (36/5, 27/5)
We ignore the negative solution, therefore, the solution is:
(x, d) = (36/5, 27/5)
Answer:
The length of the new fence is:
x = 36/5 meters
