Answer:
Point U
Step-by-step explanation:
The center point of the angle
The answer is B
-2x-27/9 = x+4
Multiply both sides by 9 & then simplify
-2x+26=9x+36
Move all terms not containing (x) to the left side
-11x+27=36
-11x=9
Divide each term by 11
X= -9/11
we have
A(-3,1), B(2,3), and C(4,-1)
we know that
the distance between two points is equal to the formula
so
Step 1
<u>Find the distance AB
</u>

<u>convert units to miles</u>

Step 2
<u>find the distance BC</u>

convert unit to miles

Step 3
<u>Find the minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic</u>
Sum the distance AB and the half distance BC

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>

To factor by a binomial, I like to use synthetic division (You can use long division but it is more work).
We are actually given a binomial because if -2 is a zero, the binomial is represented by (x- (-2)) or (x+2)
To use synthetic division,
-2 | 1 2 -9 -18
-2 0 18
____________
1 0 -9 0
Therefore, you know the constants of the equation which is equal to
1x^2 +0x -9x +0
x^2-9x
The full equation is equal to (x+2)(x^2-9x)
