The line is parallel so it has the same slope as the other line, -4.

Substitute the x and y variables with the given points and find the y-intercept.

(-8, 6)

y = -4x + b

6 = -4(8) + b

6 = -32 + b

6 + 32 = b

38 = b

So the equation is:

y = -4 + 38

Answer:

4(x-4.5)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x)=4x^2-36x+81

=4(x^2-9x)+81

=4(x^2-9x+20.25)-(4)(20.25)+81

=4(x-4.5)^2

Theorem:

The angle bisector theorem states that if a ray bisects an angle of a triangle,then it divides the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to other two sides.

By the theorem,

$\frac{24}{9x - 9} = \frac{32}{6x + 6} \\ or \: 24(6x + 6) = 32(9x - 9) \\ or \: 144x + 144 = 288x - 288 \\ or \: 144x - 288x = - 288 - 144 \\ or \: - 144x = - 432 \\ or \: x = \frac{ - 432}{ - 144} \\ x = 3$
