The product of the perpendicular lines is a negative one. Then the value of p will be negative 3.75.
<h3>What is coordinate geometry?</h3>
Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the points in space. Using this, it is possible to find the distance between the points, the dividing line is m:n ratio, finding the mid-point of the line, etc.
Given the points K(-2,5), L(1,3) and M(-5, 2p).
If KL is perpendicular to LM. Then we have
The slope of KL will be
KL = (1+2)/(3-5)
KL = -1.5
The slope of LM will be
LM = (1+6)/(3-2p)
LM = 7/(3-2p)
We know the product of the perpendicular lines is a negative one.
KL x ML = -1
-1.5 x 7/(3-2p) = -1
-10.5 = -3 + 2p
2p = -7.5
p = -3.75

My guess would be guess A
Your missing exponent would be 3
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 4(x+5) = 40 (Given)
x + 4x + 20 = 40 (Distribute the 4 into the x and 5)
5x + 20 = 40 (Add like terms)
5x = 20 (Subtract 20 on both sides)
x = 4 (Divide 5 on both sides)
<span>Y(−3, 4) is the original
</span><span>(x, y) → (x − 2, y + 1) is the rule you're using
(-3, 4) </span>→ (-3 - 2, 4 + 1)
(-3, 4) → (-5, 5)
