Answer:

Option (4). y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (3, 4)?

y = –1/3x + 5

y = –1/3x + 3

y = 3x + 2

y = 3x − 5

Line given in the graph passes through the points (-3, 2) and (0, 1).

Slope of the given line = \frac{y_{2}-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

                                  m = \frac{2-1}{-3-0}

                                  m = -\frac{1}{3}

Let the equation of a line perpendicular to this line is,

y - y' = m'(x - x') [Given line passes through (x', y')]

By the property of perpendicular lines,

m × m' = -1

(-\frac{1}{3}) × m' = -1

m' = 3

Equation of the perpendicular line will be,

y - 4 = 3(x - 3)

y - 4 = 3x - 9

y = 3x - 5

Option (4) will be the answer.

The figure below shows a right rectangular prism whose base is a square.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The intersection of the horizontal plane with the prism would have a square shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

A right rectangular prism is one in which each side makes an angle of 90^{0} with its base, which is a square. It is a three dimensional figure with six faces.

The point where the horizontal plane and the prism coincides would take the shape of the base of the prism. This is because the prism rests with its base on the horizontal plane. Thus, the shape required is in the form of a square since its base is a square. The length and width of its base are equal.
