Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x2=256
By taking Square root we get
x=16
This expression is a perfect square trinomial. It has two answers but they don't have to be different. In this case it has to be the same - because it is a perfect square trinomial.
Answer: Choice D
(a-e)/f
=======================================
Explanation:
Points D and B are at locations (e,f) and (a,0) respectively.
Find the slope of line DB to get
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (0-f)/(a-e)
m = -f/(a-e)
This is the slope of line DB. We want the perpendicular slope to this line. So we'll flip the fraction to get -(a-e)/f and then flip the sign from negative to positive. That leads to the final answer (a-e)/f.
Another example would be an original slope of -2/5 has a perpendicular slope of 5/2. Notice how the two slopes -2/5 and 5/2 multiply to -1. This is true of any pair of perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical.

Answer:
C. (-4, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point where the lines cross is the solution to both equations. That point is in the third quadrant, where both coordinate values are negative.
The x-coordinate of the point is listed first, so the solution is ...
(x, y) = (-4, -3)
