Step-by-step explanation:

c/(c - 5) = 4/(c - 4)

By Cross-multiplying,

We have c(c - 4) = 4(c - 5).

=> c² - 4c = 4c - 20

=> c² - 8c + 20 = 0

Since the discriminant is negative,

there are no real solutions for c.

However, there exist complex solutions for c.

Using the Quadratic Formula,

c = [8 ± √(-16)]/2

=> c = 4 ± √(-4)

=> c = 4 ± 4i or c = 4(1 ± i).

Answer:

No real solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

c/c−5=4/c−4

c*(c−4)=4*(c−5)

c^2−4c=4c−20

Step 2: Subtract 4c-20 from both sides.

c^2−4c−(4c−20)=4c−20−(4c−20)

c^2−8c+20=0

For this equation: a=1, b=-8, c=20

1c^2+−8c+20=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=-8, c=20.

c= −b±√b^2−4ac/2a

c= −(−8)±√(−8)2−4(1)(20)/2(1)

c= 8±√−16/2

Can someone explain this? :)
Alchen [17]

I'll do part (a) to get you started.

The angle 'a' pairs up with the 123 degree angle as a corresponding angle pair. Due to the parallel lines, the corresponding angles are congruent. Therefore a = 123.

We also see that b = 123 as well since a = b (they are vertical angles).

Notice how angle c is adjacent to the 123 degree angle. These two angles form a straight line, so they must add to 180 degrees.

c+123 = 180

c = 180-123

c = 57

-------------------------

To summarize, we have these three angles

a = 123

b = 123

c = 57

Use the graph below to find the equation that it represents.
hoa [83]

Answer:

looking at the image it forms

the equation it'll make B: y= -2x -4

each dot will equal -2 and the dot is maybe one 2 but thats due to the problem of 4-2x1 so it's marked on 2 instead of four incase it throw you off of thy answer of B
