Answer:

y - 2 = (-1/3)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.  Thus, a line perpendicular to the given y = 3x - 8 has slope -1/3.

The desired equation is thus y - k = m(x - h), or, specifically,

y - 2 = (-1/3)(x - 2)

Solve w^2 + 7w - 18 = 0<br><br>with the steps pls​
Bess [88]

Answer:

w=2  w = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

w^2 + 7w - 18 = 0

We can factor this equation

What 2 numbers multiply to -18 and add to 7

9*-2 = -18

9+-2 = 7

(w-2) (w+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

w-2 = 0    w+9 =0

w=2  w = -9

Given equation x = 6 + i, w = -1 + 5i and z = 4 - 8i, determine each of the following in the form of a + bi
Temka [501]

Answer:

i) 28 - 30i

ii) 36 + 28i

Step-by-step explanation:

i) x = 6 + i ⇒2x = 2(6 + i) = 12 + 2i

z = 4 - 8i ⇒ 4z = 4(4 - 8i) = 16 - 32i

2x + 4z = (12 + 2i) + (16 - 32i) = 28 - 30i

ii) w = -1 + 5i and z = 4 - 8i

w × z = (-1 + 5i)(4 - 8i) = -4 + 8i + 20i - 40i^{2}⇒collect like terms

w × z = -4 + 28i - 40i^{2}

∵ i^{2}=-1

∴w × z = -4 + 28i - 40(-1) = -4 + 28i + 40 = 36 + 28i
