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

Which statement about g(x)=x^2-576 is true
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

c. the zeros, -24 and 24, can be found when 0= (x+24)(x-24).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

g(x)=x^2-576

When we equate the function to zero, we obtai;

x^2-576=0

Use difference of two squares:

x^2-24^2=0

(x-24)(x+24)=0

Use the zero product property to obtain;

x-24=0,\:and\:x+24=0

This implies that;

x=24,\:and\:x=-24

The correct choice is C

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!!!
Ugo [173]

Only problem is with the simplifying.

We all know that 5/5 = 1, it is natural to  assume (x+a)/(x+a) is also 1, but in some cases where x+a=0, it is undefined. In this equation, where they simplify (x-2) and (x-6), you must say that x is not 2 nor 6 or, you just delete 0/0 which is undefined.

Therefore the only solution would be x=-1
