<h3>Answer:</h3>

The closest choice is ...

C)  27.48 and 5.20

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Using the equation ...

  y = ax² + bx + c

You can substitute the first three points to get linear equations in a, b, and c.

  10 = a(-3)² +b(-3) +c = 9a -3b +c

  4 = a(0)² + b(0) +c = c

  -1 = a(3)² + b(3) +c = 9a +3b +c

The second equation tells us c=4. Subtracting the first equation from the last, we get ...

  (9a +3b +c) -(9a -3b +c) = (-1) -(10)

  6b = -11

  b = -11/6

Then we can find "a" from the first equation:

  10 = 9a -3(-11/6) +4

  1/2 = 9a . . . . subtract 19/2

  1/18 = a . . . . . divide by 9

The model is ...

  y = (1/18)x² -(11/6)x +4 . . . . . . . . [call this "model A"]

  y = (x² -33x +72)/18

Solving this for y = -4, we have ...

  -4 = (x² -33x +72)/18

  x² -33x +144 = 0 . . . . . . multiply by 18, add 72

  (x -16.5)² -128.25 = 0 . . . . put in vertex form

  x = 16.5 ±√128.25 ≈ {5.17525, 27.8248}

___

The closest values to these among the choices offered are those of choice C. It appears that the coefficients of <em>model A</em> were rounded to 3 decimal places (or so) before the predicted x-values were computed.

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

12x + 15 = 5x +  85   {Subtract 15 from both sides}

12x + 15 - 15 = 5x + 85 - 15  

          12x = 5x + 70        {Subtract 5x from both sides}

12x - 5x   = 70

         7x = 70         {Divide both sides by 7}

          x = 70/7

x = 10

∠U = 5x = 5*10 = 50

for what value of x is &lt;1 complementary to &lt;2, ifm &lt;1=5x+4 and m &lt;2=7x+2 a.3 b7. c.1 d.14.5
antiseptic1488 [7]
Complementary angles are angles whose sum is equal to 90°.

m∠1 = 5x + 4
m∠2 = 7x + 2

m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°.

5x + 4 + 7x + 2 = 90
12x + 6 = 90
12x = 90 - 6
12x = 84
12x / 12 = 84/12
x = 7  Choice B.

m∠1 = 5x + 4 = 5(7) + 4 = 35 + 4 = 39
m∠2 = 7x + 2 = 7(7) + 2 = 49 + 2 = 51

39 + 51 = 90
90 =90
