Slope intercept form of a line perpendicular to 3x + y = -8, and passing through (-3,1) is y=\frac{1}{3} x+2

<u>Solution:</u>

Need to write equation of line perpendicular to 3x+y = -8 and passes through the point (-3,1).

Generic slope intercept form of a line is given by y = mx + c

where m = slope of the line.

Let's first find slope intercept form of 3x + y = -8

3x + y = -8

=> y = -3x - 8

On comparing above slope intercept form of given equation with generic slope intercept form y = mx + c , we can say that for line 3x + y = -8 , slope m = -3  

And as the line passing through (-3,1) and is  perpendicular to 3x + y = -8, product of slopes of two line will be -1  as lies are perpendicular.

Let required slope = x  

\begin{array}{l}{=x \times-3=-1} \\\\ {=>x=\frac{-1}{-3}=\frac{1}{3}}\end{array}

So we need to find the equation of a line whose slope is \frac{1}{3} and passing through (-3,1)

Equation of line passing through (x_1 , y_1) and having lope of m is given by

\left(y-y_{1}\right)=\mathrm{m}\left(x-x_{1}\right)

\text { In our case } x_{1}=-3 \text { and } y_{1}=1 \text { and } \mathrm{m}=\frac{1}{3}

Substituting the values we get,

\begin{array}{l}{(\mathrm{y}-1)=\frac{1}{3}(\mathrm{x}-(-3))} \\\\ {=>\mathrm{y}-1=\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{x}+1} \\\\ {=>\mathrm{y}=\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{x}+2}\end{array}

Hence the required equation of line is found using slope intercept form

The graph of F(x) can be stretched vertically and flipped over the x-axis to produce the graph of G(x). If F(x) = x^2, which of
katrin [286]

The transformed function is G(x) = -4x² after applying the transformation stretched vertically and flipped over the x-axis option (C) G(x) = -4x² is correct.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

It is defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

The options are missing.

The options are:

A. G(x) = 4x²

B. G(x) = -(1/4)x²

C. G(x) = -4x²

D. G(x) = (1/4)x²

We have an equation of a function F(x)  

F(x) = x²

The transformation F(x) can be stretched vertically and flipped over the x-axis to produce the graph of G(x)

To stretch vertically if the function is multiplied by a constant value

f(x) = ax²

To flip over the x-axis if multiply by negative value.

g(x) = -ax²

From the options

G(x) = -4x²

Thus, the transformed function is G(x) = -4x² after applying the transformation stretched vertically and flipped over the x-axis option (C) G(x) = -4x² is correct.

I need help plz and thank u sm
Alchen [17]

Answer:

5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we can see DC is the median of Triangle ABC

So it breaks the into two equal parts

Given

AD = 2x + 5

BD = 3x - 2

Now

AB = AB + BD

= 2x + 5 + 3x - 2

= 5x + 3

Hope it will help :)❤

Find the value of x in the diagram
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the inscribed angle theorem, we would have:

120° = 2(3x - 3)°

Solve for x

120 = 2*3x - 2*3

120 = 6x - 6

Add 6 to both sides

120 + 6 = 6x

126 = 6x

Divide both sides by 6

126/6 = x

21 = x

x = 21
