Answer:

  • y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AB with coordinates A(3, -3) and B(1, -1)

Perpendicular bisector passes through midpoint of the segment.

<u>Midpoint of AB has coordinates:</u>

  • x = (3 + 1)/2 = 2, y = (-3 - 1)/2 = -2

<u>Slope of AB</u>

  • m = (-1 + 3)/(1 - 3) = 2/-2 = -1

<u>Slope of the perpendicular line is:</u>

  • -1/m = -1/-1 = 1

<u>The equation of the line in point-slope form:</u>

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where m = 1, x₁ = 2, y₁ = -2
  • y - (-2) = 1(x - 2) ⇒ y + 2 = x - 2

<u>Converted into slope-intercept form:</u>

  • y = x - 4

Which equation has the solutions x = startfraction negative 3 plus-or-minus startroot 3 endroot i over 2 endfraction? 2x2 6x 9 =
Gennadij [26K]

The quadratic equation which matches given solution is x² + 3x + 3 = 0. Then the correct option is C.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

It is a polynomial that is equal to zero. Polynomial of variable power 2, 1, and 0 terms are there. Any equation having one term in which the power of the variable is a maximum of 2 then it is called a quadratic equation.

We know that the formula

\rm x = \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The solutions are given below.

\rm x = \dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt3 \iota }{2}

Then

1)  2x² + 6x + 9 = 0, the zeroes of the equation will be

\rm x = \dfrac{-6\pm 6\iota}{4}\\\\x = \dfrac{-3\pm 3 \iota}{2}

2)  x² + 3x + 12 = 0, the zeroes of the equation will be

\rm x = \dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt{39}\iota}{2}

3)  x² + 3x + 3 = 0, the zeroes of the equation will be

\rm x = \dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt3\iota}{2}

4)  2x² + 6x + 3 = 0, the zeroes of the equation will be

\rm x = \dfrac{-6\pm 2\sqrt{3}}{4}\\\\x = \dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt3 }{2}

Whats the equivelent of (-1/4-1/2)/(-4/7)
Debora [2.8K]
(-1/4-1/2)/(-4/7)
= (-1/4-2/4)* (-7/4) (common denominator is 4)
= (-3/4)* (-7/4)
= 21/16
= 1 5/6

The final answer is 1 5/6~

Find the value of x that makes m ∥ n.
kozerog [31]

<u>Given</u>:

The measures of the alternate exterior angles are (180 - x)° and x°

We need to determine the value x that makes m ║ n

<u>Value of x:</u>

We know that the measures of alternate exterior angles are equal.

Thus, we have;

180-x=x

Adding both sides of the equation by x, we have;

180-x+x=x+x

Simplifying, we get;

180=2x

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we have;

90=x

Thus, the value of x is 90.

Hence, the value x = 90 makes the alternate exterior angles congruent and hence the line m is parallel to n.

Find the lengths of x and y.
Artemon [7]
See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

in the triangle ABD
<span>applying the Pythagorean theorem
y</span>²=3³+4²---------> y²=25------------> y=5 units
tan alfa=4/3-----------> equation 1

in the triangle BDC
tan alfa=DC/BD----------> tan alfa=(x-3)/4------------> equation 2

<span>matching equations 1 and 2
4/3=</span>(x-3)/4---------> 4*4=3*(x-3)--------> 16=3x-9---------> 3x=25----> x=25/3 units

the answer is
x=25/3 units
y=5 units
