Answer: - 235

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = -3x² + 13x + 3

f(-7) = -3(-7)² + 13(-7) + 3

      = -3(49) - 91 + 3

      = -147 - 88

      = -235

Answer:

x = 5 or x = - \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

given f(x) = - 7, then

- 3x² + 13x + 3 = - 7 ( add 7 to both sides )

- 3x² + 13x + 10 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x term

product = - 3 × 10 = - 30 and sum = + 13

The factors are + 15 and - 2

Use these factors to split the middle term

- 3x² + 15x - 2x + 10 = 0 ( factor by grouping the 1/2 and 3/4 terms )

- 3x(x - 5 ) - 2(x - 5 ) = 0 ( factor out (x - 5 ) )

(x - 5)(- 3x - 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

- 3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ - 3x = 2 ⇒ x = - \frac{2}{3}

How do you work this out?
Katarina [22]
Because ABCD is a rectangle, the length of CD is 12 cm.

We need to determine the length of DE.  If we can do that, then the sum of the lengths of CD and DE represents the unknown:  the length of CE.

To find the length of CE, we have to "solve" the upper triangle.

Here's an outline of what to do:

1.  Show that BC=AD and find the length.
2.  Note that angle CAD is 60 degrees.  Why?
3.  Note that angle EAD is 30 degrees.  Why?
4.  Find the length of ED
5.  Add ED and DC, that is, ED + 12 cm.  This is your answer.

Please ask questions if need be.

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and (0,-4)
Arte-miy333 [17]

y = mx + b

To find the slope(m), you use the slope formula:

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

You plug in the points into the equation.

m = \frac{-4 - (-4)}{0 - 2}

m = \frac{-4+4}{0-2} = \frac{0}{-2} =0

The slope is 0

y = 0x + b

Any number multiplied by 0 is 0. So:

y = b

To find b, you plug in the y value of either of the points.

-4 = b

Your equation is:

y = -4 (This is a horizontal line)

Identify the three similar right triangles in the given diagram.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

B. ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC

Step-by-step explanation

Step -1 In ΔABD and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DAB=∠CAD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBA=∠CDA =90 degree, and

∠BDA=∠DCA (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -2 In ΔDBC and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DCB=∠ACD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBC=∠ADC =90 degree, and

∠CDB=∠CAD (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔDBC similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -3 In ΔABD and ΔDBC (from figure).

∠BDA=∠BCD (because , ∠ACD=ADB from stap-1 and ∠ACD=∠BCD from figure) ,

∠DBA=∠CBD =90 degree, and

∠BAC=∠BDC (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔDBC (by AAA similarity theorem).

In the above step- ΔABD similar to ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to ΔADC and ΔABD similar to ΔDBC.

Hence ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to each other in the given figure.
