HELP ASAP PLEASE!! Explain to your grandpa how you would solve the following problem step by step.

Quadrilateral CDEF is inscribed in circle A. If the m∠C = 9x° and m∠E = 7x + 4°, what is the measure of ∠E?

if the eqn of the parabola is f(x) = (x-4)(x+2), we need to mult. this out to find the coordinates of the vertex.

then f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8, and f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8.

one way in which you can find the vertex is to calculate x = -b / (2a).   here, that comes to

        )

x = = 1.   f(1) = 1^2 - 2(1) - 8 = - 9.   vertex is at (1, -9).

        2(1) 

find another point on the curve:   let x=0, for which y=-8.   then (0, -8) is on the curve.   plot the vertex and this point and draw a smooth parabola thru both.

hope this

slope =   (y2 -y1) ÷ (x2 -x1)

slope = (0 -0) / (-5, -7)

slope = 0 / -12 = 0

the slope of the line is zero.   it is perfectly horizontal.

step-by-step explanation:

b and c are the correct answers.

good luck on the quiz! : d
