Step-by-step explanation:
can't really use the Pythagorean because you don't know this is a right triangle.
use the fact that they are similar
so
3/6 = x/12 where x is FE
cross multiply
6x = 36 therefore FE = 6
then 6/12 = y/9 where y is FD
cross multiply
12y = 54 = 54/12 therefore FD = 4.5
The answer is 4.6
the equation is 19 * 4.13
Answer:
1 out of 3 times more likley but
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2 or -2
Step-by-step explanation:
If x² - 8x = -12
Step 1
We find x by solving
x² - 8x = -12
We equate to zero
x² - 8x + 12 = 0
We factorise
x² - 6x - 2x + 12 = 0
x(x - 6) -2(x - 6) = 0
(x - 6) (x - 2) = 0
x - 6 = 0, x = 6
x - 2 = 0, x = 2
x = 6 or 2
Step 2
What is x - 4?
When x = 6
= 6 - 4 = 2
When x = 2
= 2 - 4 = -2
Therefore, x - 4 = 2 or -2
Answer: Direction opens downward
Step-by-step explanation:
X-Intercept: (1/14,0),(-1/4,0)
Y-Intercept: (0,1)
Find the vertex using x= -b/2a
Plug it into the vertex form = y=a(x-h)^2 +k
H,K will identify the direction.
