Answer:
<h2>
y = - x </h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of the equation is y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where (x₀, y₀) is any point the line passes through and m is the slope:
m = -1
(-5, 5) ⇒ x₀ = -5, y₀ = 5
The point-slope form of the equation:
y - 5 = -1(x + 5)
So:
y - 5 = -x - 5 {add 5 to both sides}
y = -x ← the slope-intercept form of the equation
Answer:
parallel:
perpendicular:
Step-by-step explanation:
original line:
-7x + 8y = 4
m = 7/8
parallel:
m = 7/8
L: 7x - 8y = k
(4, -4) -> L
28 + 32 = 60 = k
L: 7x - 8y = 60
perpendicular:
m = -8/7
L: -8x + 7y = k
(4, -4) -> L
-32 + 28 = -4 = k
L: -8x -7y = -4
=> 8x + 7y = 4
Answer:
x = -4 or x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
F(x) = x² + x - 20 = x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = x(x + 5) - 4(x + 5) = (x + 5)(x - 4)
f(x) = 0 ⇔ (x + 5)(x - 4) = 0 ⇔ x + 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -5 or x = 4
Answer: C. x = -5 and x = 4.
Answer:
3 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the storage room is a rectangle, like most rooms, no indication it is otherwise.
We know it's a rectangle and not a square because it is longer than wide.
We have the perimeter measurement (16 meters).
So, we can make the following equation:
2x + 2y = 16
x being the width of the room, y being it's length. A perimeter is the sum of all sides.
We also know the room is 2 meters longer than wide... so:
y = x + 2
If we replace y in the first equation by its value relative to x, we get:
2x + 2(x + 2) = 16 which becomes
2x + 2x + 4 = 16
4x =12
thus x = 3
Width: 3 meters
Length: 5 meters.
Confirms the 16 meters perimeter.
