If a square has a length of 3x-y, what is its area?

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

9x² -6xy +y²

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the binomial can be written directly using the relationship ...

(a +b)² = a² +2ab +b²

where you have a=3x and b=-y.

area = (3x -y)² = (3x)² + 2(3x)(-y) + (-y)²

area = 9x² -6xy +y²

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+6y=-183x+6y=−18. Fully reduce your answer.

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of line is

$3x+6y=-18$

We need to find the slope of a line which is perpendicular to the given line.

The given equation can be rewritten as

$3x+6y+18=0$ ...(i)

If a line is defined as $ax+bx+c=0$ , then the slope of the line is

$m=-\dfrac{a}{b}$

In equation (i), a=3, b=6 and c=18. So, slope of the line is

$m_1=-\dfrac{3}{6}=-\dfrac{1}{2}$

Let $m_2$ be the slope of perpendicular line.

We know that product of two perpendicular line is -1.

$m_1\cdot m_2=-1$

$(-\dfrac{1}{2})\cdot m_2=-1$

Multiply both sides by -2.

$m_2=2$

Therefore, the slope of perpendicular line is 2.
