The coordinates of A, B, and C in the diagram are A (p, 4), B (6, 1 ), and C (9, q). Which equation correctly relates p and q? ↔

↔ ↔ ↔ Hint: Since AB is perpendicular to BC, the slope of AB × the slope o BC = -1. A. -q − p = 7 B. q − p = 7 C. p − q = 7 D. p + q = 7

Answer:

  D.  p + q = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of AB is ...

  mAB = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) = (1 -4)/(6 -p) = -3/(6 -p)

The slope of BC is ...

  mBC = (q -1)/(9 -6) = (q -1)/3

We want the product of these slopes to be -1:

  mAB·mBC = -1 = (-3/(6 -p))·((q -1)/3)

  -(q-1)/(6 -p) = -1 . . . . cancel factors of 3

  q -1 = 6 -p . . . . . multiply by -(6 -p)

  q + p = 7 . . . . . matches choice D

Jenny thinks that the expression below is equal to x²-4. If you agree, show that she is correct. If you disagree, show that she
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

(x-2)³∕x-2

(x-2)³∕(x-2) =(x-2) (x-2)²∕(x-2)

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)²

As we know that

(a-b)² = a²+b² - 2 ab

So

(x-2)² = x²+ 2² - 2 ˣ 2 ˣ x =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

(x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

It means that

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

So Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

Consider the exponential function f ( x ) = 13 , 500 ⋅ 0.89^x, which models the value of Mikayla's scooter, where x represents t
Elden [556K]

Answer: $8470

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you can substitute 4 for x:

f(x) = 13500*.89^4\\f(x) = 13500*0.6274\\f(x) = 8470

Mikayla's scooter is worth around $8470 after 4 years.

It was originally worth 13,500 dollars and depreciated by 11% every year.
