Answer:

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation has slope -1/3. Any line perpendicular to the given line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -1/3, which comes out to +3.

Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x - h):

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

What is the value of a in the polynomial

Alexandra [31]

Answer: a= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following expression:

$(y-4)(y^2 +4y +16)$

To find the value of the coefficient "a" you must use the distributive property to multiply the expression:

$(y-4)(y^2 +4y +16)$

until you transform it to the form:

$y^3 +4y^2 +ay -4y^2 -ay-64$

Then we have

$(y-4)(y^2 +4y +16)\\\\(y^3 +4y^2 +16y -4y^2 -16y-64)\\\\$

Therefore the value of a in the polynomial is 16

Polynomials are closed under the operation of addition. Which statement best explains the meaning of closure of polynomials unde

spayn [35]

Answer: The correct answer is the second choice: "When any two polynomials are added, the result is always a polynomial."

When a set of numbers is "closed" under an operation, it means that the resulting output answer is the same type as the input.

For example, if you add 2x + 9 and 3x + 12, you get 5x + 21.

You started with 2 polynomials and you ended with a polynomial.
