Answer:

The equation of the line segment to the line segment with end point (4, 4) and (-8, 8) is y = x/3 - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the given points are;

(4, 4) and (-8, 8)

Therefore;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where;

y₁ = 4, y₂ = -8, x₁ = 4, x₂ = 8

Therefore, the slope, m of the given line segment = (-8 - 4)/(8 - 4) = -3

The slope of the perpendicular line segment = -1/m = -1/(-3) = 1/3

The mid point of the line segment with endpoint (4, 4) and (-8, 8) is given as follows;

Midpoint, M = \left (\dfrac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \ \dfrac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right )

Therefore, the midpoint  = ((4 + 8)/2, (4 + (-8))/2) = (6, -2)

The equation of the perpendicular line segment in point and slope form is given as follows;

y - (-2) = 1/3 × (x - 6)

Which gives;

y + 2 = x/3 - 6/3 = x/3 - 2

y = x/3 - 2 - 2 = x/3 - 4

The equation of the line segment to the line segment with end point (4, 4) and (-8, 8) is y = x/3 - 4

Answer:

See answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Discriminant = b² - 4ac = (12)² - 4(9)(4) = 144 - 144 = 0

B) Since the discriminant is 0, this means the equation only has one root.

C) The root is real in this case since the discriminant is not negative. Otherwise, we would have two imaginary roots if it were (remember that complex roots come in pairs)
