Find an equation of the line perpendicular to Y equals 3X -3 and passes through the point -3 and -1

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{3} , then

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 1 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 1 = - 2

y = - \frac{1}{3} x - 2 ← equation of perpendicular line

What are the factors of the square root of 329
Andru [333]

Answer: x=-\dfrac{3}{2}, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2-10x-26=x-5

2x^2-10x-26-x+5=0  Move all terms to one side

2x^2-11x-21=0 Simplify 2{x}^{2}-10x-26-x+5

2x^2+3x-14x-21=0 Split the second term

x(2x+3)-7(2x+3)=0  Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms.

(2x+3)(x-7)=0 Factor out the common term 2x+3

x=-\dfrac{3}{2}, 7

Need help with this, simple but I don't understand/remember how to do it.
Lorico [155]

By using definition of proportionality and Pythagorean theorem, the values of x and y associated with the geometrical system formed by two right triangles are 36 / 5 and 104 / 5, respectively.

<h3>How to analyze a geometrical system formed by two proportional right triangles</h3>

Herein we find a picture of a geometrical system formed by two proportional right triangles with two variables: {x, y} These variables can be found by using the definition of proportionality and the Pythagorean theorem:

5 / 8 = 12 / (12 + x) = 13 / y

Then, we proceed to solve the system formed by two equations:

(12 + x) / 12 = 8 / 5

12 + x = 96 / 5

x = 96 / 5 - 12

x = 36 / 5

y / 13 = 8 / 5

y = 104 / 5

By using definition of proportionality and Pythagorean theorem, the values of x and y associated with the geometrical system formed by two right triangles are 36 / 5 and 104 / 5, respectively.
