Given choices:

(1) division property of equality

(2) factoring the binomial

(3)completing the square

(4)subtraction property of equality

Answer : (2) factoring the binomial

Step 1: -c = ax^2 + bx

Step 2:-c = a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]

In step 2, 'a' is taken out from ax^2 + bx. when we take out 'a' we divide each term by 'a'. so it becomes a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]

'a' is factored out in step 2. we call it as factoring a binomial.

In the isosceles △ABC m∠ACB=120° and AD is an altitude to leg BC . What is the distance from D to base AB , if CD=4cm?
7nadin3 [17]

Correct answer is: distance from D to AB is 6cm

Solution:-

Let us assume E is the altitude drawn from D to AB.

Given that m∠ACB=120° and ABC is isosceles which means

m∠ABC=m∠BAC = \frac{180-120}{2}=30

And AC= BC

Let AC=BC=x

Then from ΔACD , cos(∠ACD) = \frac{DC}{AC} =\frac{4}{x}

Since DCB is a straight line m∠ACD+m∠ACB =180

                                              m∠ACD = 180-m∠ACB = 60

Hence cos(60)=\frac{4}{x}

          x=\frac{4}{cos60}= 8

Now let us consider ΔBDE, sin(∠DBE) = \frac{DE}{DB} =\frac{DE}{DA+AB} = \frac{DE}{4+8}

DE = 12sin(30) = 6cm

How does the graph of mc024-1.jpg compare to the graph of the parent function mc024-2.jpg?
ss7ja [257]
The question is as following:
<span>How does the graph of g(x)=1/x-5+2 compare to the graph of the parent function f(x)=1/x ?
</span>
=================================================
Solution :
========
The given function ⇒ g(x) = \frac{1}{x-5} +2

The parent function of the given function ⇒ f(x)= \frac{1}{x}

By graphing both of the equations as shown in the attached figure.
So, we can conclude the following 
<span>g(x) is shifted 5 units right and 2 units up from f(x).
</span>

So, the correct answer is option 2

Maru [420]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 cups per day.....1 cup = 8oz.....so 5 cups = (5 * 8) = 40 oz

cut down by 75%....means ur only drinking 25%

25% of 40 oz =

0.25(40) = 10 oz per day <===
