Answer: the lines are not parallel.
Explanation: if you isolate the x in 3x^2-4y=-1, the equation is y=3/4x^2+1/4
So, they are not parallel because the slope is not the same.
Answer: -13, -15
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the smallest integer, then:
x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = x - 27
3x + 3 = x - 27
2x = -30
x = -15
Integers: -15, -14, -13
Answer:
M∠DEC equals 123º.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a triangle's three angles always equal 180º. The exterior angle, x, equals the two non-adjacent interior angles.
180 - {(x - 45)+(x - 12)} = m∠DEC
m∠DEC + x = 180
<u>(x - 45) + (x - 12) = x</u>
Solving for x:
(x - 45) + (x - 12) = x
x - 45 + x - 12 = x Remove parenthesis
2x - 57 = x Combine like terms
2x = x + 57 Add 57 to both sides
<u>x = 57</u><u> Subtract x from both sides</u>
Finding m∠D:
x - 45 = ?
<u>57 - 45 = </u><u>12º </u>
Finding m∠C:
x - 12 = ?
<u>57 - 12 = </u><u>45º </u>
<em>** </em><em>(Checking x: 12 + 45 = 57) </em><em>**</em>
<em>Finding </em>m∠DEC:
AC is a straight line, and because straight lines are equivalent to 180º, we subtract 57 from 180:
180 - 57 = 123º
