Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to use the distance formula, which says that for two points
and
, the distance between them is:
d = 
Here, the two points are (-2.5, 4.5) and (4.75, 4.5), so:
d =
= 7 1/4
The answer is C.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
y - 4x = 12 → (1)
2 - y = 2(x + 2)² → (2)
rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x
y = 12 + 4x
Simplify (2) by expanding factor and substituting y = 12 + 4x
2 - (12 + 4x) = 2(x² + 4x + 4)
2 - 12 - 4x = 2x² + 8x + 8
- 10 - 4x = 2x² + 8x + 8 ← rearrange into standard form
add 10 + 4x to both sides
2x² + 12x + 18 = 0 ← in standard form
divide through by 2
x² + 6x + 9 = 0
(x + 3)(x + 3) = 0 ⇒ (x + 3)² = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
Point of intersection = (- 3, 0 ) → B

It's 31 degrees, I hope it is the right answer
<h3>Answer:</h3>
y = 28
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The base angles of the isosceles triangle are congruent, so the sum of angles is ...
34° + 34° + 4y° = 180°
... 4y = 180 -68 . . . . . divide by °, subtract 68
... y = 112/4 = 28 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y
The value for y is 28.
_____
You have not asked about x in either figure.
<em>First figure</em>
Since the angles are congruent, the sides are congruent. Then ...
... 6x -3 = 5x
... x = 3 . . . . . . add 3-5x
<em>Second figure</em>
The base angles of the isosceles triangle are congruent, so
... 34° = (x -5)°
... 34+5 = x = 39 . . . . . . . divide by °, add 5.
