Check the picture drawn

Consider the line segment AB, 

let M be the midpoint of AB, so AM=MA

erect the perpendicular MT to AB from point M. Pick a point P on MT and join it to the points A and B

The triangles PMA and PMB are congruent from the Side Angle Side congruence postulate:

AM=MA, PM is common and m(PMA)=m(PMB)=90°, as MT is perpendicular to AB

so PA=PB

(3,9)(5,15)
slope = (15 - 9) / (5 - 3) = 6/2 = 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
(3,9)...x = 3 and y = 9
sub and find b, the y int
9 = 3(3) + b
9 = 9 + b
9 - 9 = b
0 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3x + 0....can be written as y = 3x.

after 12 months...
y = 3x...x = 12
y = 3(12)
y = 36 inches

Misha wrote the quadratic equation 0=-x2+4x-7 in standard form. what is the value of c in her equation
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Final answer is c=-7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 0=-x^2+4x-7.

Now question says that Misha wrote the quadratic equation 0=-x2+4x-7 in standard form. Now we need to find about what is the value of c in her equation.

We know that standard form of quadratic equation is given by ax^2+bx+c=0.

compare given equation with the standard form, we find that -7 is written in place of +c

so that means +c=-7

or c=-7

Hence final answer is c=-7.
