Treat this as you would the quadratic equation x^2 - 4x - 3 + 0. Solve this by completing the square:
x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 - 7 = 0
(x^2 - 4x + 4) = 11
(x-2)^2 = 11, and so x-2 = plus or minus sqrt(11).
Graph this, using a dashed curve (not a solid curve). Then shade the coordinate plane ABOVE the graph.
The answer to the first question is 30.
A = Sock's weight
b = Princess' weight
c = Luna's weight
a : b = 4 : 5
b : c = 6 : 7
at this point, we have to change the 2 ratios (a : b and b : c) into one ratio (a : b : c)
to do that, we have to change the ratio number so the number b in both ratio is the same
a : b = 4 : 5 = 24 : 30
b : c = 6 : 7 = 30 : 35
From that we can conclude that
a : b : c = 24 : 30 : 35
Since we're looking for the ratio of Sock's weight to Luna's weight, it will be
a : c = 24 : 35
Y=mx+b
m=slope
given
y=6x-9
m=6
the slope is 6
X= 95
z=180
y=147
based on from making sure each triangle added up to 180 degrees and with the outer angles
