A² + b² = c²

c² = 8² + 5²

c² = 89

c = √89

c = 9.4 miles

Find a cubic function with the given zeros. Square root of seven. , - Square root of seven. , -4

yan [13]

Answer:

$y= x^{3} +4x^{2}-7x-28$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find a cubic function of x whose zeros are at x = √7, x = -√7 and at x = -4.

Therefore, the factors of the function will be (x - √7), (x + √7), and (x + 4)

Hence, the equation will be y = (x - √7) (x + √7) (x + 4)

⇒ $y = (x^{2} -7)(x +4)$

⇒ $y= x^{3} +4x^{2}-7x-28$ (Answer)

Line L passes through the point (-1, 1) and is PARALLEL to the line shown here. An equation of line L is

Pachacha [2.7K]

The problem cannot be fully solved because you did provide the line on which the line is parallel/ but i can give you the steps on how to solve it. first solve the slope of the parallel line by
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
then the slope of that line is equal to slope of line passing pooint ( -1 , 1)
then solve the y intercept of the line using
y = mx + b
where b is the y intercept
then you will have the equation of the line

If DEFG is a rectangle,<br> find the measure of DEG.<br> how do i do this

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

It is 68

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x - 10 = x + 6 \\ 2x - x = 6 + 10 \\ x = 16$

$let \: (y) \: the \: angle \: which \: wanted \\ 90 = y + (2x - 10) \\ 90 = y + (32 - 10) \\ y = 90 - 22 \\ y = 68$

Thanks alot
