Answer:
g(x) = (-1/25)x + (203/25)
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation for a line is slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.
We know that perpendicular lines have opposite-signed, reciprocal slopes of the original line. Therefore, if the slope of f(x) is m = 25, the slope of g(x) must be m = (-1/25).
To find the y-intercept, we can use the newfound slope and the values from the given point to isolate "b".
g(x) = mx + b <----- General equation
g(x) = (-1/25)x + b <----- Plug (-1/25) in "m"
8 = (-1/25)(3) + b <----- Plug in "x" and "y" from point
8 = (-3/25) + b <----- Multiply (1/25) and 3
200/25 = (-3/25) + b <----- Covert 8 to a fraction
203/25 = b <----- Add (3/25) to both sides
Now that we know both the values of the slope and y-intercept, we can construct the equation of g(x).
g(x) = (-1/25)x + (203/25)

Answer:
m∠Q ≈ 53°
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the measure of ∠Q, the law of cosines will need to be used. Lowercase letters represent the side lengths, while upper case letters represent angles.
In this situation, 'A' will be ∠Q. Therefore:
17² = 18² + 20² -2(18)(20)cosQ
Simplify:
289 = 324 + 400 -2(360)cosQ
Continue simplifying down:
-435 = -720cosQ
Divide both sides by '-720':
0.604 = cosQ
m∠Q ≈ 52.83 or 53° rounded to the nearest whole degree.
