Answer:

y = -2x + 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we shall need to reform the given line equation;

y-7 = 1/2 ( x + 2)

y - 7 = x/2 + 1

y = x/2 + 1 + 8

y = x/2 + 8

Comparing this with y = mx + c

where m is the slope, then the slope of the line is 1/2

Since the line we are looking for has a slope perpendicular to this line, it means that the product of their slopes is -1

m1 * m2 = -1

1/2 * m2 = -1

m2 = -2

So we want an equation with slope -2 passing through (6,15)

we use the point slope method here;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-15 = -2(x-6)

y-15 = -2x + 12

y= -2x + 12 + 15

y = -2x + 27

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x5 –
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

We have to identify the function which has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x)= 3x^5-2x^4+9x^3-x^2+12.

Firstly, we will find the rational roots of the given function.

Let 'p' be the factors of 12

So, p= \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6

Let 'q' be the factors of 3

So, q=\pm 1, \pm 3

So, the rational roots are given by \frac{p}{q} which are as:

\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6, \pm \frac{1}{3}, \pm \frac{2}{3}, \pm \frac{4}{3}.

Consider the first function given in part A.

f(x) = 3x^5-2x^4-9x^3+x^2-12

Here also, Let 'p' be the factors of 12

So, p= \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6

Let 'q' be the factors of 3

So, q=\pm 1, \pm 3

So, the rational roots are given by \frac{p}{q} which are as:

\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6, \pm \frac{1}{3}, \pm \frac{2}{3}, \pm \frac{4}{3}.

Therefore, this equation has same rational roots of the given function.

Option A is the correct answer.
