Answer:

  • the lines have opposite slopes
  • each is a mirror of the other in the line y = -1.5
  • the point (-3/8, -3/2) is common to both lines

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the first line is 4; the slope of the second line is -4, so the slopes are opposites of each other. (The lines are not perpendicular.)

The y-intercept of the first line is 0; that of the second line is -3, so they cross the y-axis in different places.

Since the slopes are opposites of each other, one line is a reflection of the other about the horizontal line through the point where the lines meet. That point is ...

  4x = -4x -3

  8x = -3

  x = -3/8

  y = 4x = -3/2

The point of intersection (common to both lines) is (-3/8, -3/2).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x is proportional and linear ( y = coffienient(x) )

y = -4x - 3 is not proportional because it has a costant ( -3 )

They are both an equation, they have a coffienient, and a value like (x)

If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is equal to -8, which statement describes the roots?
Dovator [93]

Keywords

quadratic equation, discriminant, complex roots, real roots

we know that

The formula to calculate the <u>roots</u> of the <u>quadratic equation</u> of the form  ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

where

The <u>discriminant</u> of the <u>quadratic equation</u>  is equal to

b^{2}-4ac

if  (b^{2}-4ac)> 0 ----> the <u>quadratic equation</u> has two <u>real roots</u>

if  (b^{2}-4ac)=0 ----> the <u>quadratic equation</u> has one <u>real root</u>

if  (b^{2}-4ac)< 0 ----> the <u>quadratic equation</u> has two <u>complex roots</u>

in this problem we have that

the <u>discriminant</u> is equal to -8

so

the <u>quadratic equation</u> has two <u>complex roots</u>

therefore

the answer is the option A

There are two complex roots

In the diagram, segments AD and AB are tangent to circle C. Solve for x.
Irina-Kira [14]
The answer is A !!!!!!!!

the two segments AD and AB are equal therefore if you make the two equal to each other you will get the answer: 

<span>x^​2+2=11 then you subtract two to put x squared on the side by itself
</span>then you have <span>x^​2=9
then all you have to do is take the square root of 9 and </span><span>x^​2 and you get x=3 
thefore the answer is A</span>

8c=5c+21 What would that be
NemiM [27]
To solve for C, you have to get both of the numbers with a C on the same side.  So, subtract the 5c from the right side onto the left side.

8c = 5c + 21\\8c - 5c = 5c - 5c + 21\\3c = 21

Then, divide by 3 on each side.

3c = 21\\3c /3 = 21/3\\c = 7

So, c = 7.
