The mistake was in step one when she added the 9 to both sides

x^2 + 8x - 9 = 0
__ + __ = 8 (b)
__ • __ = -9 (a•c)
blanks = -1 and 9
(x - 1)(x + 9)
Solve for x in each one
x = 1 or -9

While driving on a highway Fiona averages 60 miles per hour .in the city she averages 30miles per hour .on a trip to her grandmo
satela [25.4K]
Fiona drives 3 1/2 hours on highway = 3.5 hours
average 60 miles per hour on highway.
Then 3.5 * 60 =210 miles 

1 1/2 hours in the city = 1.5 hours
average 30 miles per hour in city
Then 1.5 *30 = 45 miles

So
Fiona drives 210 miles on highway and 45 miles in city.
Total of her trip to her grandmother's house equals: 
210 + 45 = 255 miles

She drives 3.5 on highway and 1.5 in the city, then total driving should be:
3.5 + 1.5 = 5 hours

Average speed for the entire trip: 

255 /5 = 51 miles

Which of the following indicates that ABC and ADEF are similar?
Mama L [17]

Answer:

C. △ABC ~ △DEF

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two geometry symbols among the choices.

~ is used for indicating similarity.

≅ is used for congruency.

Statement △ABC ~ △DEF means that triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF. There is no triangle symbol in front of DEF in the picture, but I am assuming this was a typo.
