Answer:b=-10.5, a=31.5
Step-by-step explanation: 3b=-a , -3b=a
a+b =21
-3b+b = 21
-2b=21
b=-10.5
a=-3b
a=-3*-10.5=31.5
Lets solve our system of equations step by step:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the length of triangle base is 26, then let ABC be the triangle and BC be the base of the triangle=26.Let DE be the parallel line to the base that divides triangle ABC into two equal area parts.
Now, Let AD=a, DB=b, DE=c, AE=d and EC=e, then
Since, triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADE, thus using basic proportions, we get



Taking the first two equalities,we get


Thus, the length of the segment between triangle legs is 
The general form would be:

where 'a' is responsible for the magnitude of the function, 'b' is responsible for horizontal shift.and 'c' is responsible for vertical shift of the function.
Your answer would be:

Looks like choice A
