Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Common difference is 3.

Let x be a term in the sequence. The next term in the sequence is x+3.

x(x+3) = 598

x² + 3x - 598 = 0

x = [-3 ± √(3²-4⋅1(-598))]/[2⋅1] = [-3 ± 49]/2 = 23, -26

-26 is an extraneous solution, so x = 23.

The two terms are 23 and 26.

Write the equation in slope-intercept form that contains the following point and is perpendicular to the given line
Len [333]

Answer:

y = 1/4 x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -4x + 3;

the slope of this equation is -4

we want the slope perpendicular to this

take the negative reciprocal

- (-1/4) = 1/4

so the slope of our line will be 1/4

we have the slope and a point so we can use point slope form

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

y--2 = 1/4(x-4)

y+2 = 1/4 (x-4)

we need to change it to slope intercept form (y=mx+b)

distribute

y+2 = 1/4 x -1/4*4

y+2 = 1/4x -1

subtract 2 from each side

y +2-2 = 1/4 x -1-2

y = 1/4 x -3

the slope is 1/4 and the y intercept is -3
