Answer:

y - 9 = 1/2(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

find the slope that is perpendicular to line y = -2x + 8, which is the negative reciprocal slope: 1/2

substitute the new slope 1/2 and the given/known point (-3, 9) into the point-slope form:

=> y - 9 = 1/2(x - (-3)) => y - 9 = 1/2(x + 3)

point-slope form:

Question part points submissions used consider the following. g(x)={((x**2-a**2)/(x-a) text(if ) x != a,4 text(if ) x =

EastWind [94]

For $x\neq a$ , we have

$\dfrac{x^2-a^2}{x-a}=\dfrac{(x-a)(x+a)}{x-a}=x+a$

So for $g(x)$ to be continuous at $x=a$ , we require that the limit as $x\to a$ is equal to 4.

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to a}g(x)=\lim_{x\to a}(x+a)=2a=4\implies a=2$

The endpoints of two segments are given. Find each segment length to the nearest tenth. AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯: A(0, 2), B(−3, 8) and CD¯¯¯¯

sleet_krkn [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras : the lengths are the hypotenuses of the right-angled triangles created by the differences of the x and the y coordinates.

so,

AB² = (0 - -3)² + (2 - 8)² = 3² + (-6)² = 9 + 36 = 45

AB = sqrt(45) ≈ 6.7

CD² = (-2 - 0)² + (2 - -4)² = (-2)² + 6² = 4 + 36 = 40

CD = sqrt(40) ≈ 6.3
