Das is similarity


the 2 triangles are similar because of math ( don't remember which theorem or whatever)

so since similar

we have to find the bottom length
use right triangle properties
a²+b²=c²
14²+5.5²=c²
196+30.25=c²
226.25=c²
√226.25=c

ten, we do similarity

the hyptonuse of smaller triangle to base of smaller triangle is √226.25:5.5
since the triangles are similar, that should be equal to the ratio of the hypotonuse of the largger triangle to the base, which is x:√226.25


so
x/√226.25=√226.25/5.5
times both sides by √226.25
x=226.25/5.5
x≈41.1363636

the height of screen is 6 less than total
41.13636-6=35.13636

height of screen is about 35ft

A polynomial function p (x) has degree 3, and its zeros are –3, 4, and 6. What do you think is the equation of p (x)? Do you thi
zalisa [80]

Answer:

\bold{Cubic \: eq {}^{n}  = x {}^{3}  - ( \alpha  +  \beta  +  \gamma )x + ( \alpha  \beta  +  \beta  \gamma  +  \gamma  \alpha )x - ( \alpha  \beta  \gamma )} \\

Sum of zeroes ,

\alpha  +  \beta  +  \gamma  = ( - 3) + 4 + 6 = 7

sum of product of zeroes taken two at a time ,

\alpha  \beta  +  \beta  \gamma  +   \gamma  \alpha  = ( - 3)(4) + (4)(6) + (6)( - 3) \\  =  >  - 12 + 24  - 18 \\  =  >  - 6

product of zeroes ,

\alpha  \beta  \gamma  = ( - 3)(4)(6) =  - 72

Substituting the values in the equation above , we get

\bold{x {}^{3}  - ( \alpha  +  \beta  +  \gamma )x {}^{2}  + ( \alpha  \beta  +  \beta  \gamma  +  \gamma  \alpha )x - ( \alpha  \beta  \gamma ) }\\\\\bold{  ⇢ x {}^{3}  - 7x {}^{2}  + ( - 6)x - ( - 72)} \\\\\bold\blue{  ⇢x {}^{3}  - 7x {}^{2}  - 6x + 72}

hope helpful~

If (x − 2)^2=49, then x could be ?
Ket [755]
(x - 2)^2=49\\ \\ x^2-4x +4 -49=0\\ \\x^2-4x -45 = 0\\ \\\Delta = b^{2}-4ac =  (-4)^{2}-4*1* (-45)= 16+180=196  \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{4-\sqrt{196}}{2}=\frac{4-14}{2}=\frac{-10}{2}=-5 \\ \\x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{4+\sqrt{196}}{2}=\frac{4+14}{2}=\frac{18}{2}=9 \\ \\Answer : \ x=-5 \ or \ x= 9
