Y = 2x - 17, comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 2.

If perpendicular, the new slope would be -1/2, that is the negative reciprocal of 2.

And passing through (-8 , 1).

using y = mx + c,  and x = -8,  y = 1,  m = -1/2

1 = -1/2*-8 + c

1 = 4 + c

1 - 4 = c

c =  -3

y = mx + c,  substituting m = -1/2, and c = -3,    y = -(1/2)x - 3.

Option C.

Solve <br> 9^x-10x3^x+9=0
Goshia [24]
Let y = 3^x , then 9^x = (3^2)^x = (3^x)^2 = y^2,  so we can write the equation as

y^2 - 10y + 9 = 0

(y - 9)(y - 1) = 0

giving y = 9 or y = 1

Therefore  3^x = 9    giving x = 2

and 3^x = 1 giving x = 0


so the solution  set is {0, 2}

Note - I have assumed that the 'x' after the 10 means 'multiply'.   Is that correct?
