Answer:

c. 6/15 = 10/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the hint, we can form the cross products of the offered choices:

a. 6(12) vs 9(9) ⇒ 72 vs 81 . . . not a proportion

b. 8(21) vs 16(10) ⇒ 168 vs 160 . . . not a proportion

c. 6(25) vs 15(10) ⇒ 150 vs 150 . . . IS A PROPORTION

d. 4(27) vs 14(6) ⇒ 108 vs 84 . . . not a proportion

The cross products are the same for choice C, so that is a pair of ratios that form a proportion:

6/15 = 10/25

Answer:

23) 8

24)58

25)im guessing theyre both 90

Step-by-step explanation:

23)if ac=23 then 15-23=x

24) since it's a 90 degree angle the 32+x=90

and 90-32=58

Explain relationship between the factors of a quadratic expression, the roots of the related quadratic equation, and the x-inter

Zinaida [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's use x2 - 3x - 28 as an example.

It's factors are (x - 7)(x + 4).

The roots are the x-values that make our expression equal 0. In order for x2 - 3x - 28 to equal 0, either of our factors need to equal 0, since 0 times anything is 0.

x2 - 3x - 28 = 0

(x - 7)(x + 4) = 0

x - 7 = 0

x = 7

(7 - 7)(7 + 4) = 0(11) = 0

x + 4 = 0

x = -4

(-4 - 7)(-4 + 4) = -11(0) = 0

That gives us two points on our graph, (7,0) and (-4,0). Where are those? On the x-axis! Thus, there are our x-intercepts.

By the way, for the future, along the x-axis, y = 0, so if you are asked for the x-intercepts (or roots), set y = 0 and solve for x.

Along the y-axis, x = 0, so if you are asked for the y-intercepts, set x = 0 and solve for y.

y = 02 - 3(0) - 28

y = -28

So, the y-intercept(s) of our same equation is y = -28, or (0,-28).

Boom.

The vertices of a triangle are located at the points A(0, 1), B(2, 4) and C(3, 0). The triangle is translated 5 units down to ob

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The coordinates of the vertices of triangle A'B'C' are $A'(x,y) = (0,-4)$ , $B'(x,y) = (2,-1)$ and $C'(x,y) = (3,-5)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to this statement, triangle ABC must be translated 5 units in the -y direction to form triangle A'B'C'. We need to use the following operations:

$A'(x,y) = A(x,y) +(0,-5)$ (1)

$B'(x,y) = B(x,y) +(0,-5)$ (2)

$C'(x,y) = C(x,y) + (0,-5)$ (3)

If we know that $A(x,y) = (0,1)$ , $B(x,y) = (2,4)$ and $C(x,y) = (3,0)$ , then the new vertices of the rectangle are, respectively:

$A'(x,y) = (0,-4)$ , $B'(x,y) = (2,-1)$ , $C'(x,y) = (3,-5)$
