Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that there is a little triangle formed by the lines on the right side of the diagram.
Let's find the angle measures of the triangle. One of them has a supplementary angle of 96 degrees, which means that the actual interior angle is 180 - 96 = 84 degrees.
Another angle has a supplementary angle of 137, which means that the actual interior angle of the triangle is 180 - 137 = 43 degrees.
Finally, we have the expression 2x - 23, which is an exterior angle. By definition, this exterior angle is equal to the sum of the interior angles of the triangle that do not include its supplementary angle. In other words:
2x - 23 = 84 + 43
Now we just solve for x:
2x - 23 = 84 + 43 = 127
2x = 127 + 23 = 150
x = 150/2 = 75 degrees
The answer is 75 degrees, or C.
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
Here (h, k) = (- 4, - 9), thus
y = a(x + 4)² - 9
To find a substitute the coordinates of the zero (- 7, 0) into the equation.
0 = a(- 7 + 4)² - 9, that is
0 = 9a - 9 ( add 9 to both sides )
9a = 9 ( divide both sides by 9 )
a = 1, thus
y = (x + 4)² - 9 ← expand factor using FOIL
y = x² + 8x + 16 - 9
y = x² + 8x + 7

Answer:
The roots of the polynomial are;
3 + 2i
and 3-2i
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve the given polynomial using the completing the square method
We start by dividing through by 8
This will give;
x^2 - 6x = -13
To complete the square, we simply divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square it
We have this as -6/2 = -3
square it;; = (-3)^2 = 9
Add it to both sides
x^2 - 6x + 9 = -13 + 9
x^2 - 6x + 9 = -4
(x-3)^2 = -4
Find the square root of both sides
x-3 = ±2i
x = 3 + 2i
or x = 3-2i
