Answer:

no, it's not. The correct answer is 34

Step-by-step explanation:

You were almost close! However, a² is equal to a × a or (a)²

I mean by

take (-5)² and -5² for example

the one in parentheses is equal to -5 * -5 which is 25 (you are taking the who -5 and squaring itself)

while the one without the parentheses is like -(5 * 5) which is -25

Therefore, this will be like |(-5)² + (3)²|

Simplify:

|25+9|= 34

Hope this helps!

Write the equation of a line that meets all the following requirements:

LuckyWell [14K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x + y = 5
y = -x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the point-slope form of the equation for a line. To meet the given requirements, we can use a point of (5, 0) and a slope of -1. Then the equation in that form is ...

y -0 = -1(x -5)

Simplifying gives the slope-intercept form:

y = -x +5 . . . . . . . use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses

Adding x to both sides gives the standard form:

x + y = 5

<em>Explanation</em>

We know the line has the required intercept and slope because we chose those values to put into the point-slope form. Conversion from one form to another made use of the rules of equality, the additive identity element (y-0=y), and the distributive property.
