Answer:

Slope of the given line y=9 is zero

so the slope of the required line is also zero.

m=0

Using point- slope form

y-y1 = m (x -x1)

y + 8 = 0 ( x - 3)

y + 8 = 0

y = - 8

Y= -8 because the line y=9 is horizontal with no slope

Which of the following pairs of angles are congruent? ( Answer as soon as possible)

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

C. <w and <y

Step-by-step explanation:

<t and <x are corresponding angles, therefore they are congruent to each other by the corresponding angles theorem.

<w and <y are also corresponding angles and are therefore also congruent.

<x and <z are congruent also based on the vertical angles theorem.

<t and <z are alternate exterior angle, and are therefore congruent also.

So, from the pairs of angles given as options, the only given pair of angles that are congruent would be:

<w and <y

Hi! Basically, the problem is asking us to find the values of a, b, and c in the equation $f(x)=a x^{2} +bx+c$ . Since we have three unknowns, we just need three equations. We can find these equations by using the data in the table.

First let's plug x = 0 and f(x) = 0.
$0=0+0+c$
$c=0$

Now that we know c, it's time to pick two more pairs. Let's plug-in (2,78) and (4,152)

$78=4a+2b$
$152=16a+4b$

Before proceeding with the process of eliminating one variable, let us first reduce both equations to their lowest terms. We divide the first equation by 2 and we divide the second one by 4.

$39=2a+b$
$38=4a+b$

Next, we subtract equation 2 from equation 1.

$1=-2a$
$a=-0.5$

Finally, we substitute the value of a to equation 2 to get the value of b.

$38=4(-0.5)+b$
$b=40$

Therefore, the function should be $f(x)=-0.5 x^{2} +40x$
