Try to imagine this word problem, there is a wall and a ladder leaning against it, the space from the bottom of the ladder is labeled 6 and the length of the height the ladder reaches on the wall is 8. Imagine this as a right triangle now, where the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse and the length of the legs of the triangle is 6 and 8. Because we know this, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2
We then plug in the values and you get 6^2+8^2=c^2
When you simplify, you get 36+64=c^2 which is c^2=100
When you solve for c, you get c=10 which would be the length of the ladder :)
Answer:
f(x) = -3(x+3)(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
x = -3 & 1; f(x) = 9
f(x) = a(x-r1)(x-r2)
f(0) = a(x-r1)(x-r2) = 9; 9 = a(0-(-3))(0-1)
9 = a(3)(-1); 9 = a(-3)
a = -3
f(x) = -3(x+3)(x-1)
