To find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the given line, we find the negative reciprocal of the given slope (flipped and made negative), so ½ would become -2/1 or simply -2. This gives us the equation y=-2x+b. To find b we plug in the coordinates the new line has to pass through, so ((-5)=-2(10)+b) = (-5=-20+b) = (15=b) or (b=15). So, the answer would be A. y=-2x+15

Find the inverse of the function y = x2 – 12

vivado [14]

Answer: $y=\sqrt{x+12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope you mean y = x² - 12 and not y = 2x - 12.

You switch the y and x variables:

x = y² - 12

And solve for y:

x + 12 = y²

$y=\sqrt{x+12}$

Write an equivalent exponential equation for the following three problems.

Naily [24]

<u>Answer with step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given three different expressions and we are to write an equivalent exponential equation for them.

We know that the standard form of a logarithmic expression is given by:

$y = log_a ( x )$ which is equivalent to the exponential form $x = a ^ y$ .

1. $log _ {10} (0.1) = -1$ ---> $10^{-1}=0.1$

2. $log _ {3} 9 = 2$ ---> $3^2=9$

3. $log _ 5 ( \frac { 1 } { \sqrt { 5 } } ) = -\frac { 1 } { 2 }$ ---> $5^{-\frac{1}{2} }=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5} }$
