It's C. move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. then set each factor equal to zero.
Given:
Line a is perpendicular to line b
.
Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12)
.
Line b passes through the point (-8, -16).
To find:
The equation of b.
Solution:
Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12)
. So, slope of line a is
Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.



Slope of line b is 2.
If a line passing through a point
with slope m, then equation of line is

Line b passing through (-8,-16) with slope 2. So, equation of line b is



Subtract 16 from both sides.

Therefore, the equation of line b is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Below is an attachment containing the solution.
Answer:
Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots
Step-by-step explanation:
4x^2+12x=7
We need to subtract 7 to get it in the proper form
4x^2+12x-7=7-7
4x^2+12x-7=0
The discriminant is b^2 -4ac
when the equation is ax^2 +bx+c
so a =4 b=12 and c=-7
(12)^2 - 4(4)(-7)
144 +112
256
If b^2 -4ac > 0 we have 2 real distinct roots
If b^2 -4ac = 0 we have one real root
If b^2 -4ac < 0 we have two complex root
Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots
Answer:
The Answer is C. false; m =-2 or m=2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because:
2*2=4 being 4+6=10 Making 2 true, but
-2*-2= 4 as well making it 4+6=10, Making -2 true as well.
