x^2+9x+8=0

(x+1)(x+8)=0

x+1=0

x=-1

x+8 = 0

x=-8

solutions are -1 and -8

Please help answer choices are: A. 46° B. 67° C. 115° D. 134°

Answer:

134°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠BAC = ∠BCA because it is an isosceles triangle

∠XCA = ∠XAC . Congruent angles

∠XAC = 1/2(46) = 23° . because CE bisects ∠ C

∠XCA = 23°

180° - 23° - 23° = 134° . Sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°

Find all constants a such that the vectors (a, 4) and (2, 5) are parallel.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

$\displaystyle a = \frac{8}{5}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Two vectors $(x_1,\, y_1)$ and $(x_2,\, y_2)$ are parallel to one another if and only if the ratio between their corresponding components are equal:

$\displaystyle \frac{x_1}{x_2} = \frac{y_1}{y_2}$ .

Equivalently:

$\displaystyle \frac{x_1}{y_1} = \frac{x_2}{y_2}$ .

For the two vectors in this equation to be parallel to one another:

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{4} = \frac{2}{5}$ .

Solve for $a$ :

$\displaystyle a = \frac{8}{5}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{8}{5}$ would be the only valid value of $a$ ; no other value would satisfy the $\displaystyle \frac{x_1}{y_1} = \frac{x_2}{y_2}$ equation.
