Answer:

A. y+8=2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to y=-1/2x+11 would have slope +2, which is the negative reciprocal of -1/2.

Starting with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line, find the y-intercept based upon this new line's passing through (4, -8):

y = mx + b becomes  -8 = 2(4) + b.  Then b = -16, and the desired new line is

y = 2x - 16.  

Eliminate answer choices B and C, because 1/2 is not the correct slope.

Choice A is correct.  Note that the result of subbing 4 for x and -8 for y into A:  y + 8 = 2(x - 4) is a true equation:  -8 + 8 = 2(4 - 4)

Also note that y + 8 = 2(x - 4) can be written in slope-intercept form:

y = -8 + 2x - 8, or y = 2x - 16 (same as obtained earlier)

Andreas93 [3]

Doing factorization, we know that the factors of the given equation are ±√5 and ±10i.

<h3>What is Factorization?</h3>

In mathematics, factorization or factoring consists of writing a number or any mathematical item as a product of several factors, typically small or easier objects of the same.

For example, 3 × 5 is a factorization of an integer 15 and is a factorization of an equation x² – 4.

So, we have the equation:

x⁴ + 95x² – 500 = 0

Factorizing the above equation:

x⁴ + 100x² - 5x² - 500 = 0

x²(x² + 100) - 5(x² + 100) = 0

(x² - 5)(x² + 100) = 0

Solving further:

x² = 5

x² = -100

x = ±√5

x = √-100

Factors: ±√5 and ±10i

Therefore, doing factorization, we know that the factors of the given equation are ±√5 and ±10i.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Alex will pay $3,662

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total cost, we can make an equation modeling y=mx+b, with y being the total cost, m being the monthly charges, x being the amount of time it takes, and b being the 10% down payment.

After plugging in the numbers to the equation, we get y=276(12)+350.

Now all that is left is to solve the equation as follows:

y=3,312+350

y=3,662
