All real numbers above -4
something noteworthy is that the independent and squared variable in this case will be the "x", namely the graph of that quadratic is a vertical parabola.
![\bf f(x) = (x+2)(x-4)\implies 0=(x+2)(x-4)\implies x = \begin{cases} -2\\ 4 \end{cases} \\\\\\ \boxed{-2}\rule[0.35em]{7em}{0.25pt}0\rule[0.35em]{3em}{0.25pt}\stackrel{\downarrow }{1}\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}\boxed{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20f%28x%29%20%3D%20%28x%2B2%29%28x-4%29%5Cimplies%200%3D%28x%2B2%29%28x-4%29%5Cimplies%20x%20%3D%20%5Cbegin%7Bcases%7D%20-2%5C%5C%204%20%5Cend%7Bcases%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cboxed%7B-2%7D%5Crule%5B0.35em%5D%7B7em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D0%5Crule%5B0.35em%5D%7B3em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5Cstackrel%7B%5Cdownarrow%20%7D%7B1%7D%5Crule%5B0.35em%5D%7B10em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5Cboxed%7B4%7D)
so the parabola has solutions at x = -2 and x = 4, and its vertex will be half-way between those two guys, namely at x = 1.
since this is a vertical parabola, its axis of symmetry, the line that splits its into twin sides, will be a vertical line, and it'll be the x-coordinate of the vertex, since the vertex hasa a coordinate of x = 1, then the axis of symmetry is the vertical line of x = 1.
alr! so we know that the top line is straight, so it=180 degrees. then we know...
2x + 20 + 2x - 4= 180
4x + 16=180
4x=164
x=82
youre welcome!
not similar because it does not have the same shape or mirrior image think of translation,reflection,and rotation for example circles are similar
Answer: x = 17
Step-by-step explanation: Since ray SQ bisects <TSR, we know
that the m<TSQ ≅ m<QSR by the definition of an angle bisector.
So we can setup the equation (3x - 9) + (3x - 9) = 84
using the angle addition postulate.
Simplifying on the left gives us 6x - 18 = 84.
Now add 18 to both sides to get 6x = 102.
Now divide both sides by 6 so x = 17.
