PLEASE SOLVE 20 POINTS

Mathematics
2 answers:
Soloha48 [4]3 years ago

Answer:

1. Not possible. The slope of such a line is undefined. Its equation is x=7.

2. y = 3x -2

3. The slope is undefined. (The line is a vertical line.)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The y-axis is a vertical line. Computing the slope of such a line involves division by zero, an operation that is undefined. Since the line is parallel to the y-axis, there is no y-intercept.

In slope-intercept form, the equation would be useless:

... y = (undefined)x + (no such value)

If your point is supposed to be (7, 8)*, the more useful equation is the "standard form" equation:

... x = 7

2. The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of this:

... m = -1/(-1/3) = 3

In point-slope form, the equation of the perpendicular line through the given point is ...

... y = 3(x -2) +4

... y = 3x -2 . . . . . . . . simplified to slope-intercept form

3. The slope is computed from ...

... m = (change in y)/(change in x) = (-3 -4)/(-1 -(-1)) = -7/0 = undefined

The slope is undefined. This tells you the line is a vertical line. Its location is the x-value of the points, ...

... x = -1

_____

* If your point is really (77, 88), then the line has equation x = 77.

Which of the following is most likely the next step in the series? Choices: 10A, 21b, 32C, 43d, 54E, 65f. . A.66g. B.76g. C.76G.
Katena32 [7]
First, we pay attention to the numerical coefficients of the terms in the series: 10, 21, 32, 43, 54, 65. Conclusively they form an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 11. Thus, the next numerical coefficient is 76. Then, we pay attention to the letters which are just arrange alphabetically. The next letter ought to be G which needs to be capitalized. Thus, the answer is letter C. 76G.
