Using the midpoint formula we get:
(x,y)=(0+5/2, 0+12/2) or (5/2, 6) as the midpoint.
Your parabola should look like this image. The vertex is at (-1, 9), and you can use any of the x-intercepts (-4, 0) & (2, 0) or the y-intercept (0, 8) as a second point.
Since the measure of an angle is 12 degrees less than the measure of its supplement, then x=180-x-12 or 2x=168 or x=84 and 180-x=96. Step 4. ANSWER: The angle is 84 degrees and its supplementary angle is 96 degrees.
The four answer choices are equal and pass through the point (-3,1), which you verify replacing the variables:
y - 1 = (x + 3)
1 - 1 = -3 + 3
0 = 0.
The other factor that you have to considerate is the slope.
The slope of the equation y - 1 = x + 3 is 1 (the coefficient of the x).
Given that the slopes of two parallel line are the same (equal), you need to determine the slope of the parallel line.
Once you know the slope of the parallel line, you can choose the right option.
The equation shown, y - 1 = x + 3 is the right fit if and only if the parallel line has slope 1.
