You can get common denominator in the denominator of the original fraction so it would look like:
$\frac{4}{ \frac{1}{4}- \frac{10}{4} } = - \frac{1}{ \frac{9}{4} }$

You can reciprocalize and then multiply:
$4* -\frac{4}{9} = -\frac{16}{9}$

So, your answer is C.

What are the coordinates of the vertex of the function f(x)=x^2+10x−3? (–5, –28) (–5, 28) (5, –28) (5, 28)

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

(-5,-28)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x)=x^2+10x - 3$

Required

Find the coordinates of the vertex

Given that the function is a quadratic function;

The general form of a quadratic function is

$f(x)= ax^2+bx +c$

By comparison;

$a = 1\ b = 10\ and\ c = -10$

To calculate the coordinates of the vertex;

we start by calculating the x-coordinate;

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

Substitute 10 for b and 1 for a

$x = \frac{-10}{2*1}$

$x = \frac{-10}{2}$

$x = -5$

Substitute $x = -5$ in the given function;

$y=x^2+10x - 3$

$y=(-5)^2+10*-5 - 3$

$y=25-50 - 3$

$y=-28$

Hence, the coordinates of the vertex is (-5,-28)

John lays tile for a living. While trying to create the perfect design for his client, he then drew this pattern containing two

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Angle 1= 58

Angle 2= 64

Angle 3= 58

Step-by-step explanation:

The two smaller triangles are each right triangles and every triangle equals 180 so add 32 degrees and 90 degrees ( 90+32=122) and subtract that from 180 and you get angles 1 and 3 from your isosceles triangle

then you add both angles 1 and 3 from your isosceles triangle which are 58 degrees each (58+58=116) and subtract that from 180 (180-116=64) and you get angle 2
