The transformed equation is:

$(x-3)^2 = 23$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to convert the equation in the form

$(x-p)^2 = q$

Given equation is:

$x^2-6x-8 = 6$

Adding 8 on both sides

$x^2-6x-8+8 = 6+8\\x^2-6x = 14$

In the given equation

a = x

b= ?

So,

$2.x.b = 6x\\b =\frac{6x}{2x}\\b = 3\\$

So 3^2 will be added on both sides

$(x)^2-6x+ (3) = 14+ (3)^2\\(x-3)^2 = 14+9\\(x-3)^2 = 23$

Hence,

The transformed equation is:

$(x-3)^2 = 23$

Select the pairs of ratios that form a true proportion. Choose all that apply A 3: 6 and 5:10 B 4/12 and 6/18 C 20/5 and 10/3 D

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The only grouping that is a true proportion is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To tell if two are proportional, simply multiply the numerator from the first by the denominator of the second. Then multiply the denominator from the first and the numerator for the second. If the two products are the same, then it is proportional.

B) 4/12 = 6/18

4*18 = 12 * 6

One question simple please help

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{3}x - 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope.

Given line y = - 3x + 78, slope, m₁ = -3

<em><u>To find the line perpendicular to the given line.</u></em>

The lines are perpendicular to each other if the product of their slopes = - 1

That is,

$m_1 \times m_2 = -1$

So the slope of new line is

$-3 \times m_2 = -1\\\\m_2 = \frac{-1}{-3} = \frac{1}{3}$

$Therefore , equation \ of \ new \ line \ \\\\(y - y_1) = m_2(x - x_1) , where \ (x_1 , y_1) = (9, -6 )\\\\(y - (-6))= \frac{1}{3}(x -9)\\\\y + 6 = \frac{1}{3} x - 3\\\\y = \frac{1}{3}x -3-6\\\\y = \frac{1}{3}x -9\\\\$
