Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that is perpendicular to AB and passes through Point X Show all work for full credit.

y = 12/5x + 22

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the slope of the AB line.

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

3 - 8 / 2 - (-10)

-5 / 12

= -5/12

When a line is perpendicular to something, the slope becomes the opposite.

y = 12/5x + b

10 = 12/5(-5) + b

10 = -12 + b

22 = b

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
