Answer:

  y = -4/7x +58/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line segment is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (17 -3)/(1 -(-7)) = 14/8 = 7/4

Then the slope of the perpendicular line is ...

  -1/m = -4/7 . . . . . slope of the perpendicular bisector.

__

The midpoint of the given line segment is ...

  M = 1/2(x1 +x2, y1 +y2)

  M = (1/2)(-7 +1, 3 +17) = 1/2(-6, 20) = (-3, 10)

__

The y-intercept of the bisector can be found from ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 10 -(-4/7)(-3) = 10 -12/7 = 58/7

Then the slope-intercept form equation for the perpendicular bisector is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = -4/7x +58/7

The equation of parabola is x=ay^2. If a is positive and y^2 is always greater than zero or equal to zero, then x is also greater or equal to zero. This means that parabola is determined for non-negative x and for all real y.

Tha canonical equation of parabola is y^2=2px, where p>0. The branches of this parabola go up in positive y-direction. When you change x to y and y to x, then the branches of parabola go in positive x-direction, that is right.

Answer: correct choice is A.

Answer:

The expression that represents the given sequence is 5+6(n-1). Option C (not labeled).

Explanation:

<u>Arithmetic Sequences</u>

In an arithmetic sequence, each term can be obtained by adding or subtracting a fixed number to the previous term. That fixed number is called the common difference.

We are given the following sequence:

5, 11, 17, 23, 29, ...

Each term is located in a position starting from n=1. Let's test each option:

A For n=1 we should have the first term (5). Substituting n=1 into the general equation: 5+6(n+1) = 5+6(1+1) = 5+12 = 17. Since the resulting term is not 5, this option is incorrect.

B For n=1, 6+5(n+1)= 6+5(2)=16. This option is incorrect.

C (not labeled) For n=1, 5+6(n-1)=5+6(1-1)=5+0=5. The first term is correct. Let's test for the second term (n=2):

5+6(2-1)=5+6=11. Correct. For n=3

5+6(3-1)=5+12=17. Correct.

We can see the terms are increasing by 6, and the given sequence is also increasing by 6. Thus, This option is correct.

D For n=1, 6+5 (n-1)=6+0=6. This option is incorrect.

What is the x And y intercept of (10,0) and (0,-10)
Radda [10]

The y-intercept is found by letting x = 0 and finding / calculating y.  That would be (0, -10).  

The x-int. is found by letting y = 0 and finding x.  That would be (10,0).
