Answer:

y=-½x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) a perpendicular lines uses the opposite inverse of a line so the slope becomes -½x

2.) make an equation that looks as so:

y=-½x+b

the y intercept is unknown so it must be a variable.

3.) substitute the points you are given into the equation:

3=-½(4)+b

4.) solve for b

3=2+b

-2|-2

1=b

4.) place b into the equation

y=-½x + 1

Factor completely 6x - 18.<br> 6(x + 3)<br> 6(x-3)<br> 6X (-18)<br> Prime

8090 [49]

Answer:

6(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

the common number for 6 and 18 is 6 so if you extract that from the expression then it turns to 6(x-3) which cannot be factored further

Find the values of a and b such that

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

a = 1.5

b = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to solve $(x+a)^2$ and replace the result in the initial equation as:

$x^2+3x+4=(x+a)^2+b\\x^2+3x+4=x^2+2ax+a^2+b$

Then, this equality apply only if the coefficient of $x$ is equal in both sides and the constant is equal in both sides.

It means that we have two equations:

$3x=2ax\\4=a^2+b$

So, using the first equation and solving for a, we get:

$3x=2ax\\3=2a\\a=\frac{3}{2}=1.5$

Finally, replacing the value of a in the second equation and solving for b, we get:

$4=a^2+b\\4=1.5^2+b\\b=4-1.5^2\\b=4-2.25\\b=1.75$

What is the volume of a cone with a radius of 4 centimeters and a height of 5 centimeters?

vovangra [49]

Answer:

83.79 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

(please refer to attached)

recall that the volume of a cone is given by

V = (1/3) π r² h

where

r = radius = given as 4 cm

h = height = given as 5 cm

assume π = 3.142

substituting the values into the formula:

V = (1/3) π r² h

V = (1/3) (3.14) (4)² (5)

V = 83.79 cm²
