Triangle DEF has vertices D(0,0), E(7,0), and F(3,7).

Mathematics

Leni [432]3 years ago

Answer:

(3, 1.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point at which the vertices of a triangle meet is known as the orthocenter of the triangle. The orthocenter passes through the vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite sides.

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

The slope of the line joining D(0,0), F(3,7) is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-0}=\frac{7}{3}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining D and F is -3/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining D and F and passes through vertex E(7, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)\\\\y=-\frac{3}{7}x+3 \ .\ .\ .\ (1)

The slope of the line joining E(7,0), and F(3,7). is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-7}=-\frac{7}{4}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining E and F is 4/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining E and F and passes through vertex D(0, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{4}{7} (x-0)\\\\y=\frac{4}{7} x\ .\ .\ .\ (2)

The point of intersection of equation 1 and equation 2 is the orthocenter. Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 3, y = 1.7

Which polynomial is prime?<br> Ox+3x²-x²-3<br> Ox4-3x²-x² + 3<br> O 3x²+x-6x-2<br> O 3x²+x-6x + 3
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The polynomial 3x² + x - 6x + 3  is a prime polynomial

How to determine the prime polynomial?

For a polynomial to be prime, it means that the polynomial cannot be divided into factors

From the list of options, the polynomial (D) is prime, and the proof is as follows:

We have:

3x² + x - 6x + 3

From the graph of the polynomial (see attachment), we can see that the function does not cross the x-axis.

Hence, the polynomial 3x² + x - 6x + 3  is a prime polynomial

Put these into y=mx+b format SHOW YOUR WORK!!!! x-7y=7 and 6x-7y=-28
DerKrebs [107]
Answer:

Explanation:

x - 7y = 7
-7y = -x + 7
y = (-1/-7)x + 7/-7
y = (1/7)x - 1

6x - 7y = -28
-7y = -6x - 28
y = (-6/-7)x - 28/-7
y = (6/7)x + 4

Can someone help me with a question!?!?
Len [333]

If the parent graph f(x) = x² is changed to f(x) = 2x², the vertex of the parabola will still remain (0, 0) because whenever the equation of a parabola is in the form y = ax², the vertex will always be (0, 0).

Now if <em>a</em> is a big number, the parabola will become narrower.

So it will stretch vertically and become narrower.
