x^2-2=7

Subtract 7 from both sides

x^2-2-7=7-7

x^2-9=0

x^2-3^2=0

Using a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

Where a=x and b=3

(x-3)(x+3)

Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to the line y = 3/5 = 1 and passes through the point
4vir4ik [10]

The slope of the line y=\frac{3}{5} x-1 is m=\frac{3}{5}.

The line perpendicular to the above line has slope -\frac{1}{m} =-\frac{5}{3}

Its equation is y=-\frac{5}{3} x+c. Since this line passes through, (-9,4),

4=-\frac{5}{3} )(-9)+c\\ c=-11

Thus the equation of the line in slope intercept form is y=-\frac{5}{3} x-11

Can someone pls tell me if this is right? if its not then what is the right answer?
noname [10]

Answer:

It's right :)

Explanation:

  • Dilation along the x-axis = (-7-1)/(-1-1) = 2/8 = 1/4
  • Dilation along the y-axis = (-7-1)/(-1-1) = 2/8 = 1/4

Thus, the overall dilation is 1/4

The chemistry class was making 300 gallons of 30% isopropyl alcohol. They mixed 12% with 42%. How much of each did they use?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

<u>The chemistry class mixed 120 gallons of 12% isopropyl alcohol and 180 gallons of 42% isopropyl alcohol.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Amount of isopropyl alcohol made by the chemistry class = 300 of 30%

Amount of 12% isopropyl alcohol mixed by the chemistry class = x

Amount of 42% isopropyl alcohol mixed by the chemistry class = 300 - x

2. How much of each did they use?

Let's write our equation to solve for x, this way:

30% = 0.3, 12% = 0.12, 42% = 0.42

0.12x + 0.42 (300 - x) = 0.3 * 300

0.12x + 126 - 0.42x = 90

-0.3x = 90 - 126

-0.3x = -36

x = -36/-0.3

<u>x = 120 ⇒ 300 - x = 180</u>

<u>Let's prove x = 120 is correct</u>

0.12x + 0.42 (300 - x) = 0.3 * 300

0.12 * 120 + 0.42 (300 - 120) = 0.3 * 300

14.4 + 75.6 = 90

90 = 90

<u>We proved x = 120 is correct</u>
