Answer:

D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ruthie wants to construct a line that passes through point P and is perpendicular to AB

To Find : What should Ruthie do first?

Solution :

Her first step should be :

D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Accurate steps.

1.Place the compasses on the given external point P.construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

2.From each arc on AB draw an arc below the line so that the resultant arcs cross each other.

3.Place a straightedge between P and the point where the arcs intersect. Draw the perpendicular line from P to the line,

Thus the first step should be : D. construct an arc with center P that intersects segment AB in two points.

Using the Multiplication Property of -1
Papessa [141]

A. -(a+5)

Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:

-(a+5) * -1 = a+5


B. -(-x+31)

Apply the distributive property:

-(-x+31) becomes (- -x +31) which simplifies to (x+31)

multiply that by -1 to get -x+31


C. -(4x+12)

Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:

-(4x+12) * -1 = 4x+12
