Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|-20| = 20 the positive value of -20

20 is not < 20 so A is false

All the rest are true
(B) |9| = 9

(D) |9| = 9, |20| = 20 and 9 < 20

Given the points (-2, 0), (-1,0), (0, – 8), (2, 0), write the polynomial in factored form.

Ket [755]

As per given by the question,

There are given that four point.

The point is,

$(-2,\text{ 0), (-1, 0), (0, -8), (2, 0)}$

Now,

From given point,

$(-2,\text{ 0), (-1, 0), (0, -8), (2, 0)}$

Then, the factor is,

$(x+2)(x+1)(x-2)$

Now, solve the above equation,

$(x+2)(x+1)(x-2)$

The factorial formd will be,

$y=a\times(x+2)\times(x+1)\times(x-2)$

Now, find the value of "a" with the help of given point (0, -8).

So,

Puth the value of x =0, and y=-8 in above equation,

Then,

$\begin{gathered} y=a\times(x+2)\times(x+1)\times(x-2) \\ -8=a\times(0+2)\times(0+1)\times(0-2) \\ -8=a(2)(1)(-2) \\ a=\frac{-8}{-4} \end{gathered}$

Then, a=2.

Now,

The value of a is 2.

And,

The polynomial in the factored form is,

$y=2(x+2)(x+1)(x-2)$

Hence, the value of a is 2 and the polynomial in the factored form is,

$y=2(x+2)(x+1)(x-2)_{}$

The height of a triangle is 8ft greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 136.5 square ft. Find the length of the base

mixer [17]

Answer:

the base is 9/2 ft and the height is 9/2 + 8, or 25/8, ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the formula for the area of a triangle is A = (1/2)(base)(height). Let's abbreviate that to A = (1/2)(b)(h). We are told that h = b + 8.

Then A = 136.5 = (1/2)(b)(b + 8), or

(after multiplying both sides by 2)

A = 273 = b^2 + 8b

which, when put into standard quadratic form, becomes:

b^2 + 8b - 273 = 0

The coefficients of this quadratic are a = 1, b = 8 and c = -273.

Thus, the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 64 - 4(1)(-273) = 1156 = 17^2.

The roots are then

-8 ± √1156 -8 ± 17

x = -------------------- = ------------ = 9/2 and -25/2

2 2

Only the root 9/2 makes sense here, because measurements of length are positive.

Thus, the base is 9/2 ft and the height is 9/2 + 8, or 25/8, ft.
