Note that
(a -
)²
= a² - 2 + 
= a² +
- 2
= 11 - 2
= 9
Thus
(a -
)² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )
a -
= 3
22
Since the expression is a perfect square, then
(4x + 5y)²
= 16x² + 40xy + 25y²
Comparing coefficients, then
a - 1 = 40 ( add 1 to both sides )
a = 41
23
99² - 87² ← is a difference of squares and factors as
= (99 - 87)(99 + 87)
= 12 × 186 = 1152, thus
24a = 1152 ( divide both sides by 24 )
a = 48

Last option
The first would only be true if the officials were shown to treat workers poorly
The second would only be true if there were religious figures traveling
The third would only be true if there was any mention of elephants
The last is true, because messengers travel fast
Answer:
y + 3 = (1/2)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the original path is -2. Any new path perpendicular to this one will have a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -2, which here is 1/2.
Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x - h):
y - (-3) = (1/2)(x - (-2)), or
y + 3 = (1/2)(x + 2) represents the new path.
