Answer:

y=(-5/12)x+(95/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line AB

m=(3-8)/(2+10)=-5/12

step 2

Find the slope of the line parallel to AB

we know that

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are the same

so

the slope is m=-5/12

step 3

Find the equation of the line l parallel to AB that passes through Point X

The equation of the line into point slope form is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y-10=(-5/12)(x+5)

y=(-5/12)x-(25/12)+10

y=(-5/12)x+(95/12)

Which of the sets of ordered pairs represents a function? A={(-4, 5), (1, -1), (2, -2), (2, 3)} B = {(2, 2), (3, -2). (9. 3). (9
EastWind [94]

Answer: Neither A or B

Step-by-step explanation: In order for a relation to be a function, a relation can not have the x-values repeat. Y-values can repeat an infinite amount of times but x-values can only repeat 1 time in a given relation. In relation A, you have (2,-2), and (2,3) and relation B, you have (9,3), and (9,-3). You can also graph both of these relations and do a vertical line test with your pencil and see that it would cross more than once.

Hope this helps.

Find the values of k so that the slope of he line joining (5,k) and (6,k^2) is 30.
mote1985 [20]

\frac{{k }^{2} - k }{6 - 5}  = 30
{k}^{2}  - k = 30
{k}^{2}  - k - 30 = 0
(k - 6)(k  + 5) = 0
k = 6 \: or - 5
