Answer:

c = \dfrac{25}{4}

b = \dfrac{-13}{8}

a = \dfrac{11}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

given ,

equation y=ax²+bx+c

passing through points (1,6), (3, 20), and (−2,15).

then these points will satisfy the equation

at (1,6)

y  = a x²+b x+c

6 = a(1)² + b (1) + c

a + b + c = 6------(1)

at (3 , 20)

y  = a x²+b x+c

20 = a(3)² + b (3) + c

9 a + 3 b + c = 20------(2)

at (−2,15)

y  = a x²+b x+c

15 = a(-2)² + b (-2) + c

4 a -2 b + c = 15------(3)

solving equation (1),(2) and (3)

a = 6 - b - c

9 (6 - b - c)+ 3 b + c = 20

6 b + 7 c = 34-------(4)

4 (6 - b - c) -2 b + c = 15

2 b + c = 3----------(5)

on solving equation (4) and (5)

c = \dfrac{25}{4}

b = \dfrac{-13}{8}

a = \dfrac{11}{8}

Polygon with three interior angles whose sum 180 degrees
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has three vertexes, and therefore three interior angles. Those angles also sum to 180 degrees because of the formula (n-2)*180, where n is the number of sides that a polygon has. Plugging in 3, you get  1\cdot 180, or just 180 degrees. Hope this helps!

d1i1m1o1n [39]
With the number being x, we have 3x^2>6(x/9). Expanding, we get 3x^2>6x/9 and 3x^2>2x/3. Dividing by x, we get 3x>2/3 and dividing by 3 we get x>2/9

3x+y=8<br>5x+y=10<br>please help me Brainly sir ​
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

X = 1

Y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to figure out what x and y = that make both answers correct

3 x 1 = 3

3 + 5 = 8

That means that the first equation is right with X = 1 and Y = 5

Let's see the second equation

5 x 1 = 5

5 + 5 = 10

That means both equations are right so the answer would be

X = 1 and

Y = 5
