Answer: perpendicular lines intercept, parallel lines never touch and line up in the same direction
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways in which we could answer this question. My choice is to actually solve the given quadratic equation, x^2 + 4x + 4 = 12.
Note that x^2 + 4x + 4 is a perfect square. Thus,
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 12 is the same as (x+2)^2 = 12, so that
x+2 = plus or minus √3*√4, or plus or minus 2√3.
Thus, the two real, unequal roots are
x = -2 + 2√3 and x = -2 - 2√3. These correspond to answer choices C and E.
The solution or
the answer is x=1
Scott starts with 25 plus the 100 from his grandfather making 125 then subtract 50 that he traded so you get 75
Cory gains 3 cars a year and Roger 1.
Cory - 18 (6 x 3) : Roger - 6 (6 x 1)
I Cory was to stop receiving cars for 3 years, while Roger kept getting them for 3 then they would have the same amount.
