(y-4)(y^2+4y+16)
y^3+4y^2+16y-4y^2-16y-64=y^3+4y^2+ay-4y^2-ay-64
Comparing the coefficients: a=16
Answer: The value of a in the polynomial is 16
Let x be the no. of seconds it takes for the balloons to be at the same height.
7+3x = 12+2x
Deduct both sides by 2x.
7+x = 12
Deduct both sides by 7.
x = 5
Ans: It will take 5 seconds for the balloons to be at the same height.
Answer:
A. If the side lengths are the same, then a triangle is not scalene.
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles.
Simply stated, any polygon with three (3) lengths of sides is a triangle.
In Geometry, a triangle is considered to be the most important shape.
Generally, there are three (3) main types of triangle based on the length of their sides and these include;
I. Equilateral triangle: it has all of its three (3) sides and interior angles equal.
II. Isosceles triangle: it has two (2) of its sides equal in length and two (2) equal angles.
III. Scalene triangle: it has all of its three (3) sides and interior angles different in length and size respectively.
