This is a quadratic equation. There's a shortcut (two shortcuts really) called the Shakespeare Quadratic Formula (2b or -2b) applicable when the middle term is even:
OK, our problem is
Typically we'd write 
but the answers here don't so we won't either.
Answer: C and D
In 1)
Line 1 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,-2) ; (2,-4)
Line 2 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,0.5) ; (2,1)
Line 3 has following coordinates.
(0,1) ; (1,1.5) ; (2,2)
If you'll draw the lines, you'll observe that Line 1 is perpendicular to Line 2 and Line 3 and Line 2 and Line 3 are parallel to each other.
So,
Option D will be correct.
Answer:
he has 5/8 sugar left
Step-by-step explanation:
He adds 3/4 cup of sugar to a bowl. He then removes two 1/8 cups of sugar.
The law of cosines for this particular situation is b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac cosB.
Filling in what you know, you have b^2 = 25 + 49 - [2(5)(7)-.1908], which simplifies to b^2 = 74 - 69.8092 which gives you a b^2 value of 4.1908, but you have to take the square root of that so you get a side value for b of 2.05.
