Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5x² + 40x - 100

To find the zeros equate to zero, that is

5x² + 40x - 100 = 0 ( divide all terms by 5 )

x² + 8x - 20 = 0

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 20) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)

The factors are + 10 and - 2, since

10 × - 2 = - 20 and 10 - 2 = + 8, thus

(x + 10)(x - 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 10 = 0 ⇒ x = - 10

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

Zeros are x = - 10 and x = 2 → B

How do I solve this problem?

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

y+11=- $\frac{1}{4}$ (x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

since the equation is perpendicular to y=4x-2, m=-1/4 (negative reciprocal). (x_1,y_1)=(4,-11), plug all the values into the equation y- y_1 = m(x-x_1) and we get y+11=- $\frac{1}{4}$ (x-4)
