Because BLIND is similar to FAITH,
for corresponding sides we can write,
|BL|/|FA| = |LI|/|AI| = |IN|/|IT| = |ND|/|TH| = |DB|/|HF|.
For corresponding angles we can write
m∠B=m∠F, m∠L=m∠A, m∠LIN=m∠AIT, m∠N=m∠T, m∠D=m∠H.
Perpendicular means the slopes are opposite inverse of each other
If line a is slope 2, the perpendicular line to Line a would have a slope - 1/2
Difference in y over difference in x gives slope. If they are opposite inverse values the lines are perpendicular. ( in this case the answer is true.)
Answer:
y
=
4
(
1
2
)
x
Explanation:
An exponential function is in the general form
y
=
a
(
b
)
x
We know the points
(
−
1
,
8
)
and
(
1
,
2
)
, so the following are true:
8
=
a
(
b
−
1
)
=
a
b
2
=
a
(
b
1
)
=
a
b
Multiply both sides of the first equation by
b
to find that
8
b
=
a
Plug this into the second equation and solve for
b
:
2
=
(
8
b
)
b
2
=
8
b
2
b
2
=
1
4
b
=
±
1
2
Two equations seem to be possible here. Plug both values of
b
into the either equation to find
a
. I'll use the second equation for simpler algebra.
If
b
=
1
2
:
2
=
a
(
1
2
)
a
=
4
Giving us the equation:
y
=
4
(
1
2
)
x
If
b
=
−
1
2
:
2
=
a
(
−
1
2
)
a
=
−
4
Giving us the equation:
y
=
−
4
(
−
1
2
)
x
However! In an exponential function,
b
>
0
, otherwise many issues arise when trying to graph the function.
The only valid function is
y
=
4
(
1
2
)
x
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
By the factor theorem if (x + 2) is a factor of f(x) then f(- 2) = 0
f(- 2)
= 2
+ 
+ 32(- 2) + 32
= 2(64) - 32 - 64 + 32
= 128 - 32 - 64 + 32
= 64 ≠ 0
Hence (x + 2) is not a factor of f(x)
