Answer:

y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of MN, which is \frac{1-(-5)}{-6-3} = \frac{6}{-9} = -\frac{2}{3}

Then, use the formula: y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

Use point P as (x₁, y₁)

Plugging in x₁ = 6 and y₁ = 1 and simplifying, we find that:

y - 1 = -\frac{2}{3} (x - 6)

Simplify to find that:

y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 4 + 1

y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 5

Line AB is tangent to circle C, AB= 4 inches, and AD = 2 inches. Find the radius of the circle.
Mariulka [41]
Let the radius of the circle be x, then by the tangent-secant theorem
4^2 = 2(x + 2)
16 = 2x + 4
2x = 16 - 4 = 12
x = 12/2 = 6

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 6 inches.

Which of the following is a perfect square trinomial?
yanalaym [24]
Your answer is D. 16x² - 56xy + 49y².

A perfect square trinomial is the result of a squared binomial, like (a + b)². Using this example, the perfect square trinomial would be a² + 2ab + b², as that is what you get when you expand the brackets.

Therefore, to determine which of these is a perfect square trinomial, we have to see if it can be factorised into the form (a + b)².

I did this by first square rooting the 16x² and 49y² to get 4x and 7y as our two terms in the brackets. We automatically know the answer isn't A or B as you cannot have a negative square number.

Now that we know the brackets are (4x + 7y)², we can expand to find out what the middle term is, so:

(4x + 7y)(4x + 7y)
= 16x² + (7y × 4x) + (7y × 4x) + 49y²
= 16x² + 28xy + 28xy + 49y²
= 16x² + 56xy + 49y².

So we know that the middle number is 56xy. Now we assumed that it was (4x + 7y)², but the same 16x² and 49y² can also be formed by (4x - 7y)², and expanding this bracket turns the +56xy into -56xy, forming option D, 16x² - 56xy + 49y².

I hope this helps!

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-2, -8) and has a slope of 3
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

y=3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we already know the slope, all we need to find is the y-intercept

The equation for a line is:

y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. x and y are the x and y coordinates. We can use the numbers given in the problem and plug them into the equation...

y=mx+b

-8=3(-2)+b

-8=-6+b

b=-2

So the equation would be...

y=3x-2
