Answer:

The same way you tell if a parabola opens up or down, by the leading coefficient of the variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the x-axis is positive to the right, a positive leading coefficient (3) means it opens to the right. eg. And a negative leading coefficient (-2) means it opens to the left.

Jkl is an equilateral triangle jk= 13x+5,KL= 17X-19 AND JL= 8X+35

stira [4]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is equilateral then sides are congruent.

Equate any 2 sides and solve for x

13x + 5 = 8x + 35 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

5x + 5 = 35 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

5x = 30 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 6

JK = (13 × 6) + 5 = 78 + 5 = 83

KL = (17 × 6) - 19 = 102 - 19 = 83

JL = (8 × 6) + 35 = 48 + 35 = 83

ΔJKL is equilateral with side = 83
