Given the equation y − 4 = three fourths(x + 8) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form. −three fourthsx + y = 10 3x − 4y = −40 y = three fourthsx + 12 y = three fourthsx + 10

If m∠abc = 70°, what is m∠abd? justify your reasoning.  using the addition property of equality, 40 + 70 = 110, so m∠abd = 110°.  using the subtraction property of equality, 70 − 30 = 40, so m∠abd = 30°.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + m∠abd = 70. so, m∠abd = 30° using the subtraction property of equality.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + 70 = m∠abd. so, m∠abd = 110° using the addition property of equality.

What is the length of the segment, endpoints of which are intersections of parabolas y=x^2− 11/4 x− 7/4 and y=− 7 /8 x^2+x+ 31/8 ?
