Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Using:

we will have two solutions.
x^2-3x+1=0
So, a=1 b=-3 c=1

We have two solutions:

Answer:
x= 16.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The circle is unnecessary. You can just use Pythag Theorem
so
9^2+14^2= c^2
81 + 196 = 277
square root 277
16.64
round to the nearest tenth...
16.6
Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Make equation into y = mx + b
Add 3y to both sides
3y + 54 = 3x
Subtract 54
3y = 3x - 54
Divide by 3
y = x - 18
The slope is 1
Make it negative and reciprocal
= -1/1 = -1
Solution: the slope will be -1
