Answer:
b = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is given as :

The axis of symmetry for this function is x = 3/2
It is required to find the value of b. The axis of symmetry of a parabola is a vertical line that intercepts its vertex at its horizontal coordinate. It can be given by :

Putting x = 3/2 and a = 3 we get :

So, the value of b is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-7x + 6 = 27
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 6 on both sides: -7x = 21
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide -7 on both sides: x = -3
Answer: C. 42
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x + 3) is the same angle as 129.
So, you have to equal them to each other.
3x + 3 = 129
Now you solve.
Subtract 3 from each sides.
3x = 126
Divide 3 from each side.
x=42
Your answer would be 15.6
