Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Where 2 lines are perpendicular, the slope of one = - 1 / slope of the other.

Thus the slope of the red line is - 1 / 3/2

= -2/3

Answer:

slope of red line = - $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

the product of the slopes of perpendicular lines = - 1

given m = $\frac{3}{2}$ then

$m_{red line}$ = - $\frac{2}{3}$ ← product of slopes = - 1

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below (5x+1)^2=7?<br><br> Check all that apply.

stiv31 [10]

(5x+1)² = 7; expand: 25x² + 10x +1 = 7 or 25x² + 10x -6 = 0

Solve this quadratic for x:

x = [-b + √(b² - 4ac)]/2a and x = [-b - √(b² - 4ac)]/2a
Plug the values and you'll find :
x = (- √7 - 1)/5 (answer C)
x = (+√7 -1)/5 (answer E)
