Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a parabola is given as y = -4x² + 8x + 12

We have to find the x-intercepts, of the parabola.

for any point on x-axis y coordinates will be zero.

So put placing y = 0 in the equation.

0 = -4x² + 8x + 12

-4(x² - 2x - 3) = 0

x² - 2x - 3 = 0

x² - 3x + x - 3 = 0

x ( x-3) + 1( x - 3) = 0

( x+1 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0

( x + 1 ) = 0 ⇒ ( x = -1 )

( x - 3 ) = 0 ⇒ ( x = 3 )

points on x-axis will be ( -1, 0 ) & ( 3, 0 )

Option B is the answer.

The sum of the areas of two circles is 80 pie square meters. Find the length of a radius of each circle if one of them is twice

Svetach [21]

Answer:

The radius of the circles are $4\ m$ and $8\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the radius of larger circle

y----> the radius of smaller circle

we know that

$\pi x^{2} +\pi y^{2}=80\pi$

$x^{2} +y^{2}=80$ -----> equation A

Remember that

$x=2y$ -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

$(2y)^{2} +y^{2}=80$

$4y^{2} +y^{2}=80$

$5y^{2}=80$

$y^{2}=16$

$y=4\ m$

Find the value of x

$x=2y$

$x=2(4)=8\ m$

therefore

The radius of the circles are $4\ m$ and $8\ m$

Could anyone help answer the question in the photo?

Kipish [7]

Answer:

$n = -3/10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression $\frac{\sqrt[5]{b} }{\sqrt[]{b} }$

$\frac{\sqrt[5]{b} }{\sqrt[]{b} } \\= \frac{b^{1/5}}{b^{1/2}} \\= b^{1/5-1/2}\\= b ^{2-5/10}\\= b^{-3/10}\\Compare \ b^n \ with \ b^{-3/10}\\\\n = -3/10$
