It should be " b "
That should be right but u may want to wait for others to respond to this to make sure
Alright so if I do remember my math correctly, this is how it goes:
- y = -x^2 + x + 3
- x = -b/2a
- x = -1/2(-1)
- x = -1/-2, which = (1/2)
Not quite sure if this was correct, but if it was, hope this helps and you're welcome! :)
Equation of a line that is perpendicular to given line is
.
Equation of a line that is parallel to given line is
.
Solution:
Given line
.
Slope of this line,
= 



Slope of perpendicular line, 
Passes through the point (–7, 5). Here
.
Point-slope formula:



Subtract 7 from both sides, we get
