Answer:

n=-296

Steps to Equation:

  • the perpendicular slope to -15 is 1/15
  • plug what you have into y2-y1/x2-x1
  • 8 – -12/4-n
  • simplify so 20/4-n
  • then 20/4-n = 1/15
  • multiple 1 by 4-n and 15 by 20
  • 4-n=300
  • subtract 4 by both sides
  • -n=296
  • divide by negative 1 on both sides
  • n= -296

Which expression can be used to determine the length of segment ZY?
katrin2010 [14]

As we move from point Z to point Y, x increases by 8 and y increases by 3.  Thus the length of line segment ZY is sqrt(8^2 + 3^2) = sqrt(73), by the Pythagorean Theorem.  That's approx. 8.54.

You could also leave your answer in the form √(8^2 + 3^2).

Jess says that two of the three points below are on a line through the origin.
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

(3, 8) and (9, 24) lie on the same line through the origin.

because (9, 24) is the result of dilatation of (3, 8) with scale factor 3.

(6, 21) is not the result, because 21 ≠ 2×8, even 6 = 2×3
