So I believe you go

and substitute x an y like this
(1-7) (7-1)
and get a slope of -9/6
Sorry If I got it wrong,but I hope I helped
U first find the common denominator which is 8
Then subtract to get 7/8
Answer:
k = 9
length of chord = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of parabola: 
<u />
<u>Part 1</u>
If the curve passes through point
, this means that when
, 
Substitute these values into the equation and solve for
:


Apply the exponent rule
:



<u>Part 2</u>
- The chord of a parabola is a line segment whose endpoints are points on the parabola.
We are told that one end of the chord is at
and that the chord is horizontal. Therefore, the y-coordinate of the other end of the chord will also be 1. Substitute y = 1 into the equation for the parabola and solve for x:





Therefore, the endpoints of the horizontal chord are: (0, 1) and (2/3, 1)
To calculate the length of the chord, find the difference between the x-coordinates:

**Please see attached diagram for drawn graph. Chord is in red**
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of its areas is equal to
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
In this problem the scale factor is equal to the ratio 10:3
Let
z-------> the scale factor
so
z2=(10/3)2=100/9
Step-by-step explanation:
3a^2+24a+45=0
×3/3( first ×3)
9a^2+24(3a)+135=0
(3a+15)(3a+9)=0
now /3
3(a+5)(a+3)
a=-5✓
a=-3✓
