Y= ax² -4x +3

-b/2a is x - coordinate of the vertex,
line of symmetry x=-2, x=-2 is a coordinate of the vertex also, because the line symmetry has vertex.

x= -b/2a
x= -2, b= -4
-2=-(-4)/2a
-2=4/2a
-2=2/a
a=2/(-2)=-1
a= - 1

2(x-3)=5(x-3)+10<br><br><br> Need urgent help
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-3)=5(x-3)+10

=> 2x - 6 = 5x - 15 + 10

=> -6 + 15 -10 = 5x - 2x

=> 5x -2x = 15 - 6 - 10

=> 3x = 15 - 16

=> 3x = -1

=  > x =  \frac{ - 1}{3} (ans)

Which step could be used to help isolate the variable in the following equation
makvit [3.9K]
The subtraction of 4 on both sides would isolate the term 1.1j, then the division of 1.1 on both sides would isolate j.

What is m∠DHG? Enter your answer in the box.
LenaWriter [7]

the 2 equations given are vertical angles which mean they would equal the same.

Set the two equations to equal each other to solve for x:

6(x-2) = 3x+30

Simplify the left side:

6x-12 = 3x+30

Add 12 to eac side:

6x = 3x+42

Subtract 3x from each side"

3x = 42

Divide both sides by 3:

X = 42/3

X = 14


Now you know X, replace x with 14 in the equation for DHG:

DHG = 6(x-2)

6(14-2)

Simplify:

6(12)

Multiply:

72

Angle DHG is 72 degrees.
