Answer:

$-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a perpendicular line just calculate the anti-reciprocal of 2

Slope of the perpendicular line: $-\frac{1}{2}$

The equation would be:

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

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A line parallel to the x- axis has equation

y = c

Where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (1, 5) with y- coordinate of 5, thus

y = 5 ← equation of line

Answer:

C. quadratic function; quadratic term: −6x^2; linear term: −17x; constant term: −12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

quadratic function; quadratic term: −6x² ; linear term: −17x; constant term: −12

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

We need to expand the RHS to get:

We can see that the degree of this polynomial function is 2 and hence it is a quadratic function.

The quadratic term is -6x²

The linear term is -17x

The constant term is -12
