Anything times 0 is and always will be zero
galben [10]3 years ago
3 0

The coefficients of x are different in the expressions, but the constant values are the same. Zero times any value is zero, so both expressions will be equal to –5.9. If Ryan tried any other number, he would see that the expressions are not equivalent.

Which sum represents the partial fraction decomposition?​
Alex Ar [27]

It's the last option again. You have 1 linear factor (3<em>x</em>) and 2 copies of a quadratic factor (<em>x</em>² + 10), and the partial fractions with the quadratic factor need to have a linear polynomial in the numerator.

find the point-slope equation of the line perpendicular to the line y=2x+5 passing through the point (1,4). (please include solu
pishuonlain [190]
First off, let's keep in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmm so what's the slope of y = 2x + 5?

well, notice, that equation is in slope-intercept form, thus   \bf y=\stackrel{slope}{2}x+5.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}}&#10;{2\implies \stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{1}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{1}{2}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{1}{2}}}

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -1/2 and runs through 1,4.

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad \qquad \qquad &#10;slope =  m\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% point-slope intercept&#10;\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-4=-\cfrac{1}{2}(x-1)

Does (3/4,radica 7/4) lie on the circumference of the unit circle
galina1969 [7]
We have (3/4)^2 + (\sqrt{7}/4)^2 = 9/16 + 7/16 = (9+7)/16 = 16/16 = 1.
The answer is yes.
