12n^2+48n = -n^3-64 factoring polynomial equations
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12n2+48n=−n3−64

Step 1: Subtract -n^3-64 from both sides.

12n2+48n−(−n3−64)=−n3−64−(−n3−64)

n3+12n2+48n+64=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(n+4)(n+4)(n+4)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

n+4=0

n=−4

Find an equation perpendicular to x=1 and passing through (8,-9)
valina [46]

Answer:

y=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find an equation of a line that's perpendicular to x=1 that also passes through the point (8,-9).

Note that x=1 is a <em>vertical line </em>since x is 1 no matter what y is.

This means that if our new line is perpendicular to the old, then it must be a <em>horizontal line</em>.

So, since we have a horizontal line, then our equation must be our y-value of our point.

Our y-coordinate of our point (8,-9) is -9.

Therefore, our equation is:

y=-9

And this is in standard form.

And we're done!
