Line WV is perpendicular to both line RS and line TU. On a coordinate plane, 3 lines are shown. Line V W goes through (negative

1, 5) and (1, 5). Line R S goes through (negative 5, 3) and (5, 1). Line T U goes through (negative 1, negative 2) and (4, negative 3). Which statement must be true about line TU? Line TU is parallel to line RS. Line TU is perpendicular to line RS. Line TU has no slope. Line TU has a slope of –5.

Answer:

The True statement for a line TU is

Line TU is parallel to line RS

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let,

point R( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -5, 3)

point S( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (5 , 1)

and

point T( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -1, -2)

point U( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (4 , -3)

We have Line RS and Line TU

Slope of any Line having Two points ( x₁ , y₁) and ( x₂ , y₂) Given by

Slope=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }

\therefore Slope(RS)=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }\\\\\\\\\therefore Slope(RS) =\frac{1-3}{5-(-5) }\\\\\therefore Slope(RS) =\frac{-2}{10}\\\\\therefore Slope(RS) =\frac{-1}{5}\\

Similarly,

\therefore Slope(TU)=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }\\\\\\\\\therefore Slope(TU) =\frac{-3-(-2)}{4-(-1) }\\\\\therefore Slope(TU) =\frac{-1}{5}\\\\\therefore Slope(RS) =\frac{-1}{5}\\

Now,

Slope of RS = Slope of TU

We Know, if the slopes are equal then the lines are parallel.

Therefore line TU is parallel to line RS is the true statement about line TU.

In two or three sentences explain how you would solve for the real solutions of the following equation: please help asap!!
g100num [7]

the real solutions for the equation x^{3}=-64 are -

x=4,2+-2\sqrt{3i}

Step-by-step explanation:

   x^{3} = - 64

   x^{3} +64  = 0

   We can write 64 as  4^{3}

  x^{3} + 4^{3} = 0

  using the identity  ( x^{3}+y^{3} = (x+y)(x^{2} -xy+y^{2} ) )

we get,

  = (x+4) (x^{2} -x*4+4^{2} )

  = (x+4)(x^{2} -4x+16)    ....................(1)

 solving the quadratic equation  ,

   x^{2} -4x+16 =0

solutions of this quadratic equation can be obtained by

   x=-b +- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } /2a

let use y for factors

x=-(-4x)+-\sqrt{(-4x^{2} )-4*x^{2} *16}  / 2*x^{2}

x=4x+-\sqrt{16x^{2} -64x^{2} } /2x^{2}

x=4+-\sqrt{16-64}/2

x=4+-4\sqrt{3i} /2

<u />x=2+-2\sqrt{3i}    ..................(2)

from the equation 1 we have,

x-4=0

which gives solution x=4

and from equation 2 we got  x=2+-2\sqrt{3i}

so the real solutions for the equation x^{3}=-64 are -

x=4,2+-2\sqrt{3i}

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
RSB [31]

Evidence are simply facts to support a claim, while counterexamples are instances to show the contradictions in a claim

<em>The question is incomplete, as the required drop-down menus are missing. So, I will give a general explanation</em>

<em />

To show that a statement is true, you need evidence.

Take for instance:

\mathbf{if\ a^2 = 4,\ then\ a = 2}

The evidence that the above proof is true is by taking the <em>squares of both sides of </em>\mathbf{a = 2}

\mathbf{a^2 = 2^2}

\mathbf{a^2 = 4}

However, a counterexample does not need a proof per se.

What a counterexample needs is just an instance or example, to show that:

\mathbf{if\ a^2 = 4,\ then\ a \ne 2}

An instance to prove that: \mathbf{if\ a^2 = 4,\ then\ a = 2} is false is:

\mathbf{a = -2}

Hence, the complete statement could be:

<em>In a direct proof, evidence is used to support a proof . On the other hand, a counterexample is a single example that shows that a proof is false.</em>
