Answer:
the slope of line j is -1/8, the slope of lines m and n are both 8.
Explanation step by step:
Suppose j is the slope of line j, m the slope of line m and n the slope of line n. Since:
1. line j is perpendicular of line m, so j*m= -1
2. J is perpendicular of line n, so j*n=-1
3. m and n and parallel so m=n
As we want to know the slope of j we clear the equations presented to us in order to find it.
(1) m* n* j = -8, since n=m we have * j = -8.
we clear j;
replacing in the equation n*j = -1 we get
n*(-8/n^2) = -1. Thus n = 8. Since j = -1/n = -1/8.
Answer:
x = -15 and x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have to use the complete the square method, we first need to <u>rewrite the equation</u> in the form .
This results in .
Next, we <u>simplify the equation</u> to get .
<u>Factoring </u>the left side gives us .
Finally we <u>solve the equations</u>: and
.
This gives us x=1, and x=-15
