That's false. Take the numbers 1, 3, and 5.
Let a = 1, b = 3, and c = 5.
ab + bc = ac
3 + 15 = 5
18 ≠ 5
Since 18 does not equal 5, this is false. If you were to use the distributive property on ab + bc = ac, you would get
b(a+c) = ac, which doesn't even make sense.
Have a nice day! :)
Answer:
Second choice, 3
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + b^2 = 5^2
16 + b^2 = 25
b^2 = 9 (square root both sides)
b = 3
The equation of the line is 
Explanation:
The equation of the line is perpendicular to
The equation is of the form
where m=-14
<u>Slope:</u>
The slope of the perpendicular line can be determined using the formula,



Thus, the slope of the line is 
<u>Equation of the line:</u>
The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

Substituting the slope
and the point (2,-4), we get,

Simplifying, we get,



Thus, the equation of the line is
