To answer this you must know the rule for the slopes of perpendicular lines. the rule is that if 2 lines are perpendicular to each other, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal.
the word opposite means that if the slope of one is positive, then the other is negative. And vice versa.
the word reciprocal means that you divide 1 by whatever the slope is. So the reciprocal of x is 1/x.
so let's say we have a slope of -2 and what to find a line perpendicular. We need to find the opposite reciprocal. the opposite of -2 is 2. And the reciprocal of 2 is 1/2. So perpendicular line would have slope of 1/2
now to answer yours.
We know that y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y intercept.
so:
y - 3 = 4 (x + 2)
y = 4x + 11
so m = 4. the slope is 4.
the opposite of 4 is - 4 and the reciprocal of - 4 is - 1/4. So that is out new slope of perpendicular line.
We know that given a point we can use:
(y - y1) = m (x - x1), where (x1, y1) is the given point
We are given point (- 5, 7) and we know m = - 1/4. so:
y - (7) = - 1/4(x - (- 5))
y - 7 = - 1/4(x + 5)
y - 7 =- 1/4x - 5/4
y = - 1/4x + 23/4
this should be equAtion. We can check by seeing if slopes are opposite reciprocal and by plugging in point.
- 1/4 is opposite reciprocal of 4.
plug in point
7 = - 1/4 (- 5) + 23/4
7 = 5/4 + 23/4
7 = 7
this is correct

Answer: Conjecture: There is no triangle with side lengths N, 2N, and 3N (where N is a positive real number)
Proof:
We prove this by contradiction: Suppose there was an N for which we can construct a triangle with side lengths N, 2N, and 3N. We then apply the triangle inequalities tests. It must hold that:
N + 2N > 3N
3N > 3N
3 > 3
which is False, for any value of N. This means that the original choice of N is not possible. Since the inequality is False for any value of N, there cannot be any triangle with the given side lengths, thus proving our conjecture.
Answer:
Up
Step-by-step explanation:
Here the easy rules to remember the orientation of the parabolas are
a) If x is squared it opens up or down. And its coefficient of {
Hence in our equation of parabola
x is squared and its coefficient is positive , hence it opens up towards positive y axis.
