7 0

Answer:

x = 2/3 or x = -2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

15x^2 - 4x - 4 = ?

factor the left side of the expression and set factors equal to zero:

(3x-2)(5x+2)=0

3x - 2 =0 or 5x + 2 =0

3x =2 or 5x = -2

x = 2/3 or x = -2/5

B ^ 2 - 4b - 14 = 0
Blizzard [7]
Simplifying
b2 + -4b + -14 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-14 + -4b + b2 = 0

Solving
-14 + -4b + b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'b'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '14' to each side of the equation.
-14 + -4b + 14 + b2 = 0 + 14

Reorder the terms:
-14 + 14 + -4b + b2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0
0 + -4b + b2 = 0 + 14
-4b + b2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: 0 + 14 = 14
-4b + b2 = 14

The b term is -4b. Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4b + 4 + b2 = 14 + 4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4b + b2 = 14 + 4

Combine like terms: 14 + 4 = 18
4 + -4b + b2 = 18

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + -2)(b + -2) = 18

Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.242640687

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting
(b + -2) equal to 4.242640687 and -4.242640687. b + -2 = 4.242640687

Simplifying
b + -2 = 4.242640687

Reorder the terms:
-2 + b = 4.242640687

Solving
-2 + b = 4.242640687

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + b = 4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + b = 4.242640687 + 2
b = 4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: 4.242640687 + 2 = 6.242640687
b = 6.242640687
Simplifying
B = 6.242640687

Subproblem 2
b + -2 = -4.242640687

Simplifying
b + -2 = -4.242640687

Reorder the terms:
-2 + b = -4.242640687

Solving
-2 + b = -4.242640687

Solving for variable 'b'.

Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + b = -4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + b = -4.242640687 + 2
b = -4.242640687 + 2

Combine like terms: -4.242640687 + 2 = -2.242640687
b = -2.242640687

Simplifying
b = -2.242640687

Prove that lines 3x-4y=12 and 3y=12-4x are perpendicular.
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2 lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes equals - 1

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Consider the given equations

3x - 4y = 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- 4y = - 3x + 12 ( divide terms by - 4 )

y = \frac{3}{4} x - 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{3}{4}

3y = 12 - 4x = - 4x + 12 ( divide terms by 3 )

y = - \frac{4}{3} x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{4}{3}

Then

\frac{3}{4} × - \frac{4}{3} = - 1

Since the product of their slopes = - 1 then the lines are perpendicular
