For two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1, in this case our reference line has a slope of -3 so:
-3m=-1 divide both sides by -3
m=-1/-3
m=1/3
So the perpendicular line will have a slope of 1/3
Answer:
−b4+2b2+35
Step-by-step explanation:
b2+5)(−b2+7)
=(b2)(−b2)+(b2)(7)+(5)(−b2)+(5)(7)
=−b4+7b2−5b2+35
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume = 198 ft
length * width * height = 198
(x - 1) * (x + 4) * 3 = 198
(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 198/3
(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 66
x*x + x*4 -1*x - 1*4 = 66 {Use FOIL method to multiply}
x² + 4x - x - 4 = 66
x² + 3x - 4 =66
x² + 3x - 4 - 66 = 0
x² + 3x - 70 = 0
Now factorize.
x² + 10x - 7x - 7*10 = 0
x(x +10) - 7(x + 10 ) = 0
(x + 10)(x - 7) = 0
x - 7 = 0 {x + 10 is ignored because measurement cannot be in negative}
x = 7
length = x - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6ft
Width = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 ft
1.34 is greater than 1.334
