$\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}
\\\\
\begin{array}{llcccl}
\stackrel{f(x)}{y} = & 1x^2& +4x& -12\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&a&b&c
\end{array}
\qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}\quad ,\quad c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
\\\\\\
\left(-\cfrac{4}{2(1)}~~,~~-12-\cfrac{4^2}{4(1)} \right)\implies (-2~~,~~-12-4)\implies (-2~~,~~-16)$

Answer:

50.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve. Put the smaller triangle side over the larger triangle side.

x 46.2-14 (This is the length of the short side of the triangle)

--------- = -------------

72.6 46.2

Using cross products

46.2 *x = (46.2-14) *72.6

46.2 *x = (32.2) *72.6

46.2x =2337.72

Divide each side by 46.2

46.2/46.2 *x = 2337.72/46.2

x = 50.6

Hello,

$\lim_{x \to 0}\dfrac{ \sqrt{x+25}-5}{x}\\\\$

$=\lim_{x \to 0}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x+25}-5)*(\sqrt{x+25}+5)}{x*(\sqrt{x+25}+5)}\\\\$

$=\lim_{x \to 0}\dfrac{x+25-25)}{x*(\sqrt{x+25}+5)}\\\\$

$=\dfrac{1}{10}$
