A garbage truck and a dump truck each drive along a straight road between two points. Using the points on a map that the city cr

eated, the garbage truck will start at (–3, 4) and will stop at (5, 12). The dump truck will start at (5, –3) and will stop at (–4, 33).
What are the coordinates of the intersection that both trucks drive through?

We first find the lines of the motion of each truck, then calculate its intercept.
Garbage truck:
m = (12 - 4) / (5 - 3)
m = 4
4 - y = 4(3 - x)
4x - y = 8

Dump truck:
m = (33 + 3) / (-4 - 5)
m = -4
33 - y = -4(-4 - x)
4x + y = 17

Adding the two equations to solve them, we get:
8x = 25
x = 25 / 8

y = 17 - 4(25/8)
y = 17 - 25/2
y = 9/2

The trucks' point of intersection is (25/8,9/2)

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with
12345 [234]

Answer:

x-intercepts are (0, 0) and (-6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

equation of a parabola in vertex form:  y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex

Substituting the given vertex (-3, -18) into the equation:

y = a(x + 3)² - 18

If the y-intercept is (0, 0) then substitute x=0 and y=0 into the equation and solve for a:

0 = a(0 + 3)² - 18

⇒ 0 = a(3)² - 18

⇒ 0 = 9a - 18

⇒ 9a = 18

⇒ a = 2

Therefore, y = 2(x + 3)² - 18

To find the x-intercepts, set the equation to 0 and solve for x:

                                 2(x + 3)² - 18 = 0

Add 18 to both sides:     2(x + 3)² = 18

Divide both sides by 2:    (x + 3)² = 9

Square root both sides:      x + 3 = ±3

Subtract 3 from both sides:  x = ±3 - 3

so x = 3 - 3 = 0  

and  x = -3 - 3 = -6

So x-intercepts are (0, 0) and (-6, 0)

Rule for raising a power to a new power
KiRa [710]
The practical rule would be, times that number, by the result of the first time you multiplied the first number. But, it would all depend by how much your're raising the number by.

<u>For example:</u> \boxed{4^6}

We do, (4*4*4*4*4*4)= \boxed{\bf{4^6}}= 4096

But, once again, this was an example. This would show and illustrate the rule of "raising a power".<span />

Janet is designing a frame for a client. She wants to prove to her client that m∠AGE ≅ m∠CHE in her sketch. What is the missing
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

I believe the answer is transative property. I'm currently taking the test so I'm not 100% sure if I'm right yet.

Step-by-step explanation:

In step one, AGE and HGB are verticle angles since they are opposite of each other. then step two is alternate interior angles because they are interior angles opposite of each other, self-explanatory. the reason I choose the transitive property over the corresponding angles theorem is because the transitive property states: among A B and C, if A=B and B=c then A=C and in this case since AGE=HGB andHGB=CHE then AGE=CHE. I hope this helps and if you know the right answer just put it in the comments, if I'm wrong ofc.

What is the solution set of (x - 2)(x - 3) = 2?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

X = 4, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying out

X^2 - 2x - 3x +6 = 2

X^2 - 5x +4 = 0

Factoring:

X^2 - 4x - X +4

X(x-4) - 1(x-4)

(x-1)(x-4)=0

X= 1, 4
