Answer:

the lines are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

You can tell something by looking at the differences of coordinates:

B-A = (6-2, -11-5) = (4, -16) . . . . . Δy/Δx = -16/4 = -4

D-C = (-1-3, 9-10) = (-4, -1) . . . . . Δy/Δx = -1/-4 = 1/4

The product of the slopes of these lines is (-4)(1/4) = -1, so ...

the lines are perpendicular

Grace [21]

The answer is 26.33 repeating
How you get that answer is
First do N times 3
so the you have 3n + 5 = 84
minus 5 from both sides and then you get 3n = 79
divid both sides by 3 and then you get n = 26.33 reapting

Describe the nature of the roots for this equation.<br> 3x^2+x-5= 0

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

<h2>This equation has no natural roots.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2+x-5=0\\\\\text{Use the quadratic formula for}\ ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\text{For the given equation:}\\\\a=3,\ b=1,\ c=-5\\\\b^2-4ac=1^2-4(3)(-5)=1+60=61\\\\x=\dfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{61}}{(2)(3)}=\dfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{61}}{6}\notin\mathbb{N}$
