Answer:
Γ = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² - 8x + Γ
with a = 1, b = - 8 and c = Γ , then
sum of zeros α + β = - 
= - 
= 8
product of zeros = αβ = 
= Γ
Given α - β = 2 , then
(α - β)² = 2²
α² - 2αβ + β² = 4 → (1)
and
(α + β)² = 8²
α² + 2αβ + β² = 64 → (2)
Add (1) and (2) term by term
2α² + 2β² = 68 ( divide through by 2 )
α² +β² = 34
Substitute α² + β² = 34 into (1)
34 - 2αβ = 4 ( subtract 34 from both sides )
- 2αβ = - 30 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
αβ = 15
Now
αβ = Γ = 15
Thus
f(x) = x² - 8x + 15
Using hit and trial, you van find it pretty easily-
- Putting x=0, we get y=-3
- Putting x=1, we get y=-1
- Putting x=2, we get y=5
You can try it for yourself as well, for me, I couldn't find any other option appropriate.
So basically you're dividing 12 by 3 times x which is 12 over 3x. 12/3x

Answer:
{2.96, 12.66}
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph shows the rocket will be 600 feet up after 2.96 seconds, and again at 12.66 seconds.
__
You can solve the equation h = 600 to find the times.
-16t^2 +250t = 600
-16(t^2 -15.625t) = 600
-16(t^2 -15.625t +7.8125²) = 600 -16(7.8125²)
-16(t -7.8125)² = -376.5625
t -7.8125 = √(376.5625/16) ≈ ±4.8513
t = 7.8125 ± 4.8513 ≈ {2.9612, 12.6638}
The rocket will be 600 ft above the ground 2.96 and 12.66 seconds after launch.
