Answer:
a = 2, b = -9, c = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Replacing x, y values of the points in the equation y = a*x^2 + b*x +c give the following:
(-1,14)
14 = a*(-1)^2 + b*(-1) + c
(2,-7)
-7 = a*2^2 + b*2 + c
(5, 8)
8 = a*5^2 + b*5 + c
Rearranging:
a - b + c = 14
4*a + 2*b + c = -7
25*a + 5*b + c = 8
This is a linear system of equations with 3 equations and 3 unknows. In matrix notation the system is A*x = b whith:
A =
1 -1 1
4 2 1
25 5 1
x =
a
b
c
b =
14
-7
8
Solving A*x = b gives x = Inv(A)*b, where Inv(A) is the inverse matrix of A. From calculation software (I used Excel) you get:
inv(A) =
0.055555556 -0.111111111 0.055555556
-0.388888889 0.444444444 -0.055555556
0.555555556 0.555555556 -0.111111111
inv(A)*b
2
-9
3
So, a = 2, b = -9, c = 3
Answer:
60,120
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that angles on the same side of the transversal always add up to 180 ( are supplementary)
Hence, taking one of the angles as x we get,
x+(60+x)=180
2x+60=180
2x=120
x=60
Hence, one angle is 60 degrees while the other 120 degrees
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
b = 2/3
a = 7/3
b)
Cross multiply,
2b + 1 = a*(3b - 1)
2b + 1 = a*3b - 3*a
2b + 1 = 3ab- 3a
2b = 3ab - 3a - 1
2b - 3ab = -3a - 1
b(2 - 3a) = -3a - 1
