Check the picture below.
now, we have a triangle with all three sides, thus we can use Heron's Area Formula on the triangle.
Let x = the total number of pennies her piggy bank can hold.
Then 2/3x = the number of pennies she started with
Then 2/3x - 80 = the number of pennies she has left after taking out 80 pennies.
Then 1/2x = the number of pennies she has left after taking out 80 pennies.
Build the equation.
2/3x - 80 = 1/2x
Subtract 1/2x from each side of the equation.
(2/3x - 80) - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x
1/6x - 80 = 0
Add 80 to both sides of the equation.
(1/6x - 80) + 80 = 0 + 80
1/6x = 80
Divide both sides by 1/6.
(1/6x) / 1/6 = 80 / 1/6
x = 480
So, Linda's piggy bank can hold 480 pennies!
Donny drove 70 miles.
Since 60 miles per hour is 1 mile a minute so for in 45 minutes he drove 45 miles. After he drove for 50 miles for thirty minutes so in totally he drove 25 since 50 divided by two is 25.
Yo sup??
y=(x+4)(x-2)
to find the x intercept put y=0
0=(x+4)(x-2)
so either x=-4 or x=2
Therefore the graph intersects the x axis at -4 and 2
Lenght of x intercept=|-4-2|=6 units
y=(x+4)(x-2)
=x^2+2x-8
This is an upward opening parabola
To find the coordinates of the vertex we can apply the formula
(-b/2a,-D/4a)
b=2
a=1
D=b^2-4ac
=4-4*1*(-8)
=4+32=36
Vertex=(-2/2*1,-36/4*1)
=(-1,-9)
Hope this helps.
