The equation of line perpendicular to given line is:

$y = \frac{2}{3}x-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

$3x+2y = -8$

First of all, we have to find the slope of the given line

So,

$3x+2y = -8\\2y = -3x-8\\$

Dividing both sides by 2

$\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{-3x-8}{2}\\y = \frac{-3x}{2} - \frac{8}{2}\\y =-\frac{3}{2}x-4$

As the equation is in slope-intercept form, the co-efficient of x will be the slope of the line

$m_1 = -\frac{3}{2}$

As we know that product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1

Let m-2 be the slope of line perpendicular to given line

$m_1.m_2 = -1\\-\frac{3}{2} . m_2 = -1\\m_2 = -1 * -\frac{2}{3}\\m_2 = \frac{2}{3}$

Slope-intercept form is:

$y = m_2x+b$

putting the value of the slope

$y = \frac{2}{3}x+b$

Putting the point (3,1) in the equation

$1 = \frac{2}{3}(3) +b\\1 = 2 + b\\b = 1-2\\b = -1$

Putting the value of b

$y = \frac{2}{3}x-1$

Hence,

The equation of line perpendicular to given line is:

$y = \frac{2}{3}x-1$

Keywords: Slope-intercept form, slope

Choose the correct simplification of (7x^3y^3)^2. (5 points) 100 POINTS GIVING BRAINLIEST FOR GOOD EXPLANATION

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x^3y^3)^2

= (7)^2 * (x^3)^2 * (y^3)^2

= 49 * x^(3*2) * y^(3*2)

= 49x^6y^6

You have to distribute the terms in "7x^3 * y^3" each to the power of 2

(7)^2 * (x^3)^2 * (y^3)^2

Now you can apply the rule "(x^a)^b = x^a*b" and further simplify the expression

Explain how to write a quadratic equation given the following three points on the graph (5,31) (3,11) (0,11)

masha68 [24]

Given:

The graph of a quadratic function passes through the points (5,31) (3,11) (0,11).

To find:

The equation of the quadratic function.

Solution:

A quadratic function is defined as:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$ ...(i)

It is passes through the point (0,11). So, substitute $x=0,y=11$ in (i).

$11=a(0)^2+b(0)+c$

$11=c$

Putting $c=11$ in (i), we get

$y=ax^2+bx+11$ ...(ii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (5,31). So, substitute $x=5,y=31$ in (ii).

$31=a(5)^2+b(5)+11$

$31-11=a(25)+5b$

$20=25a+5b$

Divide both sides by 5.

$4=5a+b$ ...(iii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (3,11). So, substitute $x=3,y=11$ in (ii).

$11=a(3)^2+b(3)+11$

$11-11=a(9)+3b$

$0=9a+3b$

Divide both sides by 3.

$0=3a+b$ ...(iv)

Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get

$4-0=5a+b-3a-b$

$4=2a$

$\dfrac{4}{2}=a$

$2=a$

Putting $a=2$ in (iv), we get

$0=3(2)+b$

$0=6+b$

$-6=b$

Putting $a=2,b=-6$ in (ii), we get

$y=(2)x^2+(-6)x+11$

$y=2x^2-6x+11$

Therefore, the required quadratic equation is $y=2x^2-6x+11$ .

Given: g(x) = Vx – 4 and h(x) = 2x – 8.<br> What is g(h(10))?

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

g(h(10)) = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: g(x) = 4x – 4 and h(x) = 2x – 8.

We are to find g(h(10))

First we need to get g(h(x))

g(h(x)) = g(2x-8)

Replace x in g(x) with 2x-8 as shown:

g(2x-8) = 4(2x-8)-4

g(2x-8)= 8x-32-5

g(2x-8) = 8x-37

Hence g(h(x)) = 8x-37

g(h(10)) = 8(10)-37

g(h(10)) = 80-37

g(h(10)) = 43

Hence g(h(10)) is 43
