The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of 3, the slope of the given line.
  m = -1/(3) = -1/3

Only choices C and D have this slope. Only choice D goes through the given point. (-1/3)*6 +10 = -2 +10 = 8.

The appropriate selection is ...
  D. (-1/3)x + 10

How to determine whether two known pairs of points are on the same line.
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample response: Use the slope formula three times: once for the first pair of points, then for the second pair of points, then for one point from each pair. If all three slopes are the same, then all the points lie on the same line.

Solve the following quadratic equations using completing the square x2 – 8x – 34 = 0
sveta [45]

Answer:

x=4± 5sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 – 8x – 34 = 0

To complete the square Add 34 to each side

x^2 -8x -34+34=0+ 34

Take the coefficient of x, and divide by 2

-8/2 =-4

Then square it and add it to each side

(-4)^2 =16

x^2 – 8x +16 = 34+16

x^2 – 8x +16 = 50

We replace the left side with (x + the coefficient of x/2)^2

(x -4)^2=50

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x -4)^2)=±sqrt(50)

x-4 = ±sqrt(25*2)

x-4 = ±sqrt(25)*sqrt(2)

x-4 = ±5sqrt(2)

Add 4 to each side

x=4± 5sqrt(2)
