Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the plane intersects the join of points in the ratio k:1
let (x,y,z) be the point of intersection.

point of intersection is (8/3,14/3,8/3)
and ratio of division is 2:1
Sure this question comes with a set of answer choices.
Anyhow, I can help you by determining one equation that can be solved to determine the value of a in the equation.
Since, the two zeros are - 4 and 2, you know that the equation can be factored as the product of (x + 4) and ( x - 2) times a constant. This is, the equation has the form:
y = a(x + 4)(x - 2)
Now, since the point (6,10) belongs to the parabola, you can replace those coordintates to get:
10 = a (6 + 4) (6 - 2)
Therefore, any of these equivalent equations can be solved to determine the value of a:
10 = a 6 + 40) (6 -2)
10 = a (10)(4)
10 = 40a
Your initial instinct would be to solve this problem with this solution. 34 x 57 = 1,938 petals.
However, the word estimate is present; therefore, we have to consider that we need to get the approximate number and not the exact number of petals.
There is a general rule regarding estimation or approximation. You have to round it to the nearest place you have based on. In this problem we round it off to the nearest tens place.
If the number is below 5, you round it down: 34 is rounded down to 30 petals.
If the number is above 5, you round it up: 57 is rounded up to 60 sunflowers.
Thus, your equation would be : 30 x 60 = 1,800 petals (best estimate)
Answer:
The values of variables x and m are 11 and 17
Step-by-step explanation:
The question has missing details as the diagram of the trapezoid isn't attached.
(See attachment).
Given that trapezoid CHLE is isosceles then the angles at the base area equal (4x)
And
The angles at the top are also equal
8m = 11x + 15
At this point, the four angles in the trapezoid are 8m, 11x + 15, 4x and 4x..
The sum of interior= 360
So,
11x + 15 + 8m + 4x + 4x = 360
Collect like terms
11x + 4x + 4x + 8m = 360 - 15
19x + 8m = 345
Substitute 11x + 15 for 8m
19x + 11x + 15 = 345
30x + 15 = 345
30x = 345 - 15
30x = 330
Divide through by 30
30x/30 = 330/30
x = 11
Recall that 8m = 11x + 15;
8m = 11(11) + 15
8m = 121 + 15
8m = 136
Divide through by 8
8m/8 = 136/8
m = 17
Hence, the values of variables x and m are 11 and 17
