Answer:

y= -3/4x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

- perpendicular: opposite signs and reciprocal

m= -3/4

point-slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-1)= -3/4(x-(-4))

y+1= -3/4(x+4)

y+1= -3/4x -3

y= -3/4x-2

If we are given x such that 25^x-9^y=18 and 5^x-3^y=3, compute 5^x+3^y.

leonid [27]

25 = 5*5 and 9 = 3*3, which we can exploit to write

$25^x-9^y=(5^2)^x-(3^2)^y=5^{2x}-3^{2y}=(5^x)^2-(3^y)^2$

so that this expression is actually a difference of squares. We can factorize this to get

$(5^x-3^y)(5^x+3^y)=18$

and given that $5^x-3^y=3$ , we divide both sides by this to get

$5^x+3^y=\dfrac{18}3=\boxed{6}$

In the figure below, the two triangular faces of the prism are fight triangles with sides of length 3, 4, and 5. The other three

olasank [31]

The figure of the prism is attached below.

The total surface area of the prism equals the sum of areas of two triangles and the three rectangles.

Surface Area of Prism = Area of 2 Triangles + Area of 3 Rectangles.

Area of a Triangle = 0.5 x Base x Height
Area of a Triangle = 0.5 x 3 x 4 = 6 square units

There are 3 rectangles. From the figure we can see that the bottom most rectangle has the dimensions 4 by 6. The left most rectangle has the dimensions 3 x 6 and the right most rectangle has the dimensions 5 by 6.

So, the Area of 3 rectangles will be = (4 x 6) + (3 x 6) + (5 x 6) = 72 square units

The Surface Area of the prism will be:

Surface Area = 2 (4) + 72 = 84 square units

Thus the correct answer is option A
