Answer:

D. y = 4x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that is perpendicular to the line MN should have a slope that when multiplied by the slope of line MN will result to negative one. Therefore,

Therefore,

m₁ × m₂ = -1

Using the 2 coordinates of MN let's find the slope,

(-7, 6)(5, 3)

Therefore,

m₁ = 3 - 6 / 5 - (-7) = -3 / 12 = - 1 / 4

The equation that represent a line perpendicular to the line MN is

y = 4x - 6 because the slope slope(m₂) is 4.

From our formula,

4 × - 1 / 4 = - 1

So, option D meets the requirement.

Graph each circle given below right the center and the radius of each circle

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Center: (-1,8)

Radius: 1

The graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the circle has the form:

$(x -h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}$

Where (h,k) is the point of the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

The equation given in the problem is

$(x +1)^{2}+(y-8)^{2}=1$

Therefore:

h=-1

k=8

Then, the center is (-1,8) and radius is 1.

You can graph the circle with its center at the (-1,8) and a radius of 1 as you can see in the figure attached.

The answers x^1 or x^0 How??

pickupchik [31]

Remember a^(m) x a^(n) = a(m+n) & √a = a^(1/2)

===> x^(1/2 -3/2)+x(1/2 -1/2) ====> x^(-1)+x^(0) (any number Exp 0 =1)
X^(-1) +1 ===> 1/x +1 or (1+x)/x

Please help picture shown

SashulF [63]

$\dfrac{x}{x-5} ~ \cdot~ \dfrac{2x}{x+4} =\dfrac{x~ \cdot~ 2x}{(x-5)(x+4)}= \dfrac{2x^2}{x^2 -x -20}$

The answer is D.

Hope it helps!
