A software designer is mapping the streets for a new racing game. all of the streets are depicted as either perpendicular or par

ElenaW [278]

The equation of the central street PQ is -1.5x - 3.5y = -31.5 option (b) is correct.

<h3>What is a straight line?</h3>

A straight line is a combination of endless points joined on both sides of the point.

We have a straight line:

$-7x+3y=-21.5$

Convert it to the general form given below:

$\rm y=mx+c$

$\rm 3y=-21.5+7x\\\\ \rm y = \frac{-21.5}{3}+\frac{7}{3}x$ or

$\rm y = \frac{7}{3}x-\frac{21.5}{3}$

$m = \frac{7}{3}$ (Slope of AB line)

For the slope(m') of the PQ line:

$\rm m'=-\frac{1}{m}$ ( because AB and PQ are perpendicular to each other)

$\rm m' = -\frac{3}{7}$

We know the:

$\rm (y-y')=m'(x-x')$

Where (x', y') = (7, 6), we get:

$\rm (y-6)=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)$

$\rm 7(y-6)=-3 (x-7)\\\\\rm 7y-42= -3x+21\\\\\rm 7y= -3x+21+42\\\\\rm 3x+7y=63$

$\rm -1.5x-3.5y=-31.5$ (multiply by -1/2 on both sides)

Thus, the equation of the central street PQ is -1.5x - 3.5y = -31.5

If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is 4 which statement describes the roots.

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

2 real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

If the discriminant is >0 then the equation has 2 real roots

If the discriminant is =0 then the equation has 1 real roots

If the discriminant is <0 then the equation has 2 complex roots

since the discriminant is 4, it has 2 real roots
