Answer:
x= 55
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles add to 180 degrees since they form a straight line
2x+70 =180
Subtract 70 from each side
2x+70-70=180-70
2x= 110
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 110/2
x= 55
Maria = x
Tom = y
Use substitution
x+y=30
2y=x
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10
Tom is 10 years old.
x+y=30
x+10=30
x=20
Maria is 20 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
The axis of symmetry: is the line that makes the parabola split in exactly half and lines up with the vertex. For that parabola x=1 is the line of symetry.
The vertex is where the minimum of the graph is, on this graph you can eyeball it to be (1,-9)
The x-intercept is where y is 0 so that's where the lines intersex with the x-axis. (-2,0) and (4,0)
The y-intercept of the function is where x is 0 and where the parabola intersects with the y-axis. On this graph it would be (0,-8)
Hope that helps :)
