Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line y = 3 is a horizontal line with slope zero (0).

We wish to find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y = 3. Such a line would be a vertical one. Vertical lines do not have slopes defined (due to division by zero).

Thus the general form of the equation of this new line is x = c.

This new line passes through (24, -56). Thus, x must be 24: x = 24

Find the Value of X. If your answer is not an integer, express it in simplest radical form.

Gennadij [26K]

For each question we must apply the Pythagorean theorem and clear the value of x.
question 5
x = root (14 ^ 2 + 16 ^ 2)
x = root (452)
x = 2raiz (113)
question 6
x = root (8 ^ 2 + 15 ^ 2)
x = 17
question 7
x = root (12 ^ 2 + 12 ^ 2)
x = root (2 * (12 ^ 2))
x = 12raiz (2)
question 8
x = root (18 ^ 2 - 9 ^ 2)
x = root (243)
x = 9raiz (3)
