Answer:
The answer is 'C' "The slope of line BC is equal to the slope of line segment DE"
Step-by-step explanation:
This is correct. I checked my answer for this about 3 times. If this isn't correct then my next bet is answer 'D'

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
One is given the following equation;

The problem asks one to find the roots of the equation. The roots of a quadratic equation are the (x-coordinate) of the points where the graph of the equation intersects the x-axis. In essence, the zeros of the equation, these values can be found using the quadratic formula. In order to do this, one has to ensure that one side of the equation is solved for (0) and in standard form. This can be done with inverse operations;


This equation is now in standard form. The standard form of a quadratic equation complies with the following format;

The quadratic formula uses the coefficients of the quadratic equation to find the zeros this equation is as follows,

Substitute the coefficients of the given equation in and solve for the roots;

Simplify,

Therefore, the following statement can be made;

Remark
As long as the representation shows the numbers come one after another, you can get x to be anything.
Givens
x Can be the second number
x - 1 Can be the first number
x + 1 Can be the third number
x + 2 Can be the fourth number
Equation
x + x + 2= 132
Solution
2x + 2 = 132
2x = 130
x = 65
So the 4 numbers are 64 65 66 67
Check
The second and fourth numbers added together = 65 + 67 = 132
