To solve this, you’ll first need to solve for their slopes.
The slope for line Q is y2-y1/x2-x1 = -8-(-2)/-8-(-10) = -3
We know that the lines are perpendicular so the negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
The equation you get it y = 1/3x + b.
Now you will need to solve for b by substituting in the first ordered pair of line R.
2 = 1/3(1) + b.
Once you solve for b, you should get 5/3 and y = 1/3x + 5/3
Now, to find a, you will need to substitute in 10 from the second ordered pair into x in your new equation.
y = 1/3(10) + 5/3.
Your solution should be 5.
So your answer is: a = 5
F(g(2))
g(x) = x^2 - 6x - 7
g(2) = 2^2 - 6(2) - 7
g(2) = 4 - 12 - 7
g(2) = -15
f(x) = x + 8
f(g(2) = f(-15) = -15 + 8 = -7 <==
ur answer is -7
The answer is 270, the pattern is multiplying by 3. So, 10 • 3 = 30 30 • 3 = 90 90 • 3 = 270, and so on. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any further assistant.
