Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Make equation into y = mx + b
Add 3y to both sides
3y + 54 = 3x
Subtract 54
3y = 3x - 54
Divide by 3
y = x - 18
The slope is 1
Make it negative and reciprocal
= -1/1 = -1
Solution: the slope will be -1
Trinomial 2x² + 4x + 4.
It's of the form ax²+bx+c and it's discriminant is Δ=b² - 4.a.c
(in our case Δ = 4² - (4)(2)(4) → Δ = - 32
We know that: x' = -1 + i and x" = -1 - i
If Δ > 0 we have 2 rational solutions x' and x"
If Δ = 0 we have1 rational solution x' = x"
If Δ < 0 we have 2 complex solutions x' and x", that are conjugate
In our example we have Δ = - 16 then <0 so we have 2 complex solutions
That are x'= [-b+√Δ]/2.a and x" = [-b-√Δ]/2.a
x' =
Answer:
D. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The lines cross on the point (2.5,4), this is the only place on the graph where the lines share the same y-value.
