First we need to find the slope of the original equation
2x - 3y = 3
-3y = -2x + 3
y = 2/3x - 1....the slope here is 2/3.
However, we need a perpendicular line...so we need to use the negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign.
slope 2/3.....flip.....3/2....change the sign...-3/2.
so our perpendicular line will need a slope of -3/2.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/2
(-8,2)...x = -8 and y = 2
now we sub and solve for b, the y int
2 = -3/2(-8) + b
2 = 12 + b
2 - 12 = b
-10 = b
so our perpendicular line is : y = -3/2x - 10
You have to divide to find a common number. 143/13=11

Answer:6018
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Sequence

It represent an A.P. with
first term 
common difference 
So sum of 51 term

2.6 2.5 5.8 yep that's how u do it lol
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
