Answer:
See explanation below to use the vertex form to solve a quadratic equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - h)^2 - k = 0, the vertex is (h, -k)
An example below, taking a quadratic equation and completing the square:
x^2 - 2x - 1 = 0
x^2 - 2x = 1
(-2/-2)^2 = 1, add 1 to both sides of the equation.
x^2 - 2x + 1 = 1 + 1
(x - 1)^2 = 2
(x - 1)^2 - 2 = 0
The vertex is (1, -2)
Answer:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem and properties of sines, cosines, and tangents to solve the triangle, that is, to find unknown parts in terms of known parts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean theorem: a2 + b2 = c2.
Sines: sin A = a/c, sin B = b/c.
Cosines: cos A = b/c, cos B = a/c.
Tangents: tan A = a/b, tan B = b/a.
Answer:
a) 13, 10, 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The usual form of the triangle inequality requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the longest side (a+b>c). The only choice for which this is true is ...
10 + 13 > 16 . . . . choice A
_____
<em>Comment on the triangle inequality</em>
Some authors also allow the sum to equal the longest side (a+b≥c). In that case, choice B (1+2=3) is also an answer. This "triangle" would look like a line segment of length 3. It has zero area.
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is in slope intercept form. 
8 replaces b, so it is the y-intercept.
-5 replaces m, so it is the slope.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
She bet 9 each time, you can find this by doing 27 ÷ 3 :)
