An important postulate in geometry states: "Through Point P, there is only one line parallel to ". What is the equation of line

l, parallel to that passes through Point X?
A ( -10,8) B(2,3) X(-5,10)

This is on a graph and I have to show steps and I am stumped

At first we will find the slope of the line that <span>passes through the points A and B
</span>
<span>A ( -10,8), B(2,3)
slope = (Δy)/(Δx) = (3-8)/(2-(-10)) = -5/12

the require line is parallel to the line </span><span><span>passes through the points A and B
</span>∴ the slope of the line </span><span>that passes through Point X = -5/12
and have a general form
   y = m x + c
where m is the slope and c is constant
the constant can be calculated by substituting with the point x (-5,10) in the equation of general form
∴ 10 = (-5/12)*-5 + c
   c = 10 - 25/12 = 95/12
∴ y = (-5/12)x +95/12  ⇒⇒⇒⇒ multiplying the equation by 12

∴ 12y = -5x +95

Find the inverse of the function f(x) = (x - 4) 2 - 5 if x ≥ 4.
Serggg [28]
Same here, we do a quick switcharoo on the variables first,

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=(x-4)^2-5\qquad inverse\implies \boxed{x}=\left( \boxed{y}-4 \right)^2-5&#10;\\\\\\&#10;x+5=(y-4)^2\implies \pm\sqrt{x+5}=y-4\implies \pm\sqrt{x+5}+4=y

in a circle a 60 sector has an area of 25 pi square feet. what is the circumference? leave your answer in terms of pi and in sim
belka [17]
The area of the sector is given by the equation,
                           A = πr²(x / 360°)
where x is the number of degrees in the figure. 
                           25π ft² = (πr²)(60/360)
The value of  r is 12.25 ft. Then, we use this value to calculate for the circumference of the sector. 
                           C = 2πr(x/360)
Substituting,
                              C = 2π(12.45)(60/360)
                                   C = 12.83 ft³
