Since all the sides add up to 10x+2, that means that 10x-2-<side1>-<side2>=<side3>. Plugging it in, we have 10x-2-5x-(2x+9)=side3, and 5x-2-(2x+9)=side3, then expanding it to 5x-2-2x-9=3x-11=side3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to answer this, we need an image to be able to see what they look like.
Yo sup??
y=(x+4)(x-2)
to find the x intercept put y=0
0=(x+4)(x-2)
so either x=-4 or x=2
Therefore the graph intersects the x axis at -4 and 2
Lenght of x intercept=|-4-2|=6 units
y=(x+4)(x-2)
=x^2+2x-8
This is an upward opening parabola
To find the coordinates of the vertex we can apply the formula
(-b/2a,-D/4a)
b=2
a=1
D=b^2-4ac
=4-4*1*(-8)
=4+32=36
Vertex=(-2/2*1,-36/4*1)
=(-1,-9)
Hope this helps.
