A segment is bounded by two endpoints.

The two segments can have up to two common points

Assume the line segments are AB and CD where the length of AB is greater than the length of CD.

<u>The possibilities are:</u>

<em>A point of segment CD lies on segment AB</em>
<em>Both points of segment CD lie on segment AB.</em>

<em />

See attachment for both possibilities.

Hence, it is possible for the two segments to have two common points.

Find the real numbers x and y that make the equation true.<br> -4 + yi = x + 3i

erastova [34]

Equate the real and imaginary parts independently to find x and y.
Real part: -4=x, so x=-4
Imag. part yi=3i, so y=3

A bus is travelling with 52 passengers. When it arrives at a stop, y passengers get off and 4 get on. At the next stop one-third

MissTica

52-y+4
(2/3) (52-y+4)+3=25 ;; (1/3) get off, so (2/3) left
(2/3)(52-y+4) =22
52-y+4=33
-y=-23
y=23

<h3>Answer: B) 6 right and 9 down</h3>

We start with x-5. We want to add on some h value such that x-5+h = x+1, which solves to h = 6. So we must add on 6 to (x-5) to get to (x+1). This shifts the graph 6 units to the right.

As for the vertical shifting, we start with +7 and we end up at -2. The vertical distance is 7-(-2) = 9 units, so we must shift 9 units down.

14. Andrew earns $6.25 per hour. He works 4 hours per day, 5 days

swat32

Answer:

$125 per week

Step-by-step explanation:

Andrew earns $6.25 per hour. If he works for 4 hours, solution will be:

$6.25 × 4 = $25 per day.

If Andrew works 5 days per week, then he earns

$25 × 5 = $125 per week.

Therefore by estimate, Andrew earns $125 per week.

Quadratics easy question. Please help

andre [41]

Answer:

1.62 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h = -16t² + 24t + 16.4

The initial height is 16.4 feet. The snowboarder lands 3.2 feet below this, or at a height of 13.2 feet.

13.2 = -16t² + 24t + 16.4

16t² − 24t − 3.2 = 0

Solve with quadratic formula:

t = [ -(-24) ± √((-24)² − 4(16)(-3.2)) ] / 2(16)

t = [ 24 ± √(576 + 204.8) ] / 32

t = 1.62

The snowboarder is in the air for 1.62 seconds.
