Answer:

145°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways you can get there:

1. ∠ACB is a right angle, 90°. Hence, ∠BAC is the complement of ∠ABC, so is ...

... ∠BAC = 90° -∠ABC = 90° -55° = 35°

Then, ∠BAC and ∠BAD are a linear pair, so total 180°. That makes ∠BAD the supplement of ∠BAC, so ...

... ∠BAD = 180° -35° = 145°

2. ∠BAD is the exterior angle at A for the triangle ABC. It will have a measure that is the sum of the opposite interior angles: given ∠ABC = 55° and right angle ACB = 90°.

... ∠BAD = 55° +90° = 145°

Priscilla can make 4 bracelets in 17 minutes. At this rate, how many bracelets can she make in 34 minutes?
andrew11 [14]
4 bracelets/17 minutes = x bracelets/34 minutes
cross multiply: 4 · 34 = 17 · x
Divide both sides by 17: (4 · 34)/17 = x
x = 8

Answer: 8 bracelets

PLEASE HELP
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

f(x) = 2(x + 4)² - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of quadratic function whose vertex is (h, k),

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

Equation of the function with vertex (-4, -2) shown in the graph will be,

f(x) = a(x + 4)² - 2

This graph is passing through a point (-6, 6) also,

6 = a(-6 + 4)² - 2

6 + 2 = a(-2)²

a = \frac{8}{4} = 2

Therefore, quadratic function is f(x) = 2(x + 4)² - 2
