Answer:

B. y=x²-x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the product ...

0 = (x -a)(x -b) = x² -(a+b)x +ab

This equation has solutions x=a and x=b. You will note that ...

the constant is the product of the solutions (ab)
the coefficient of x is the opposite of their sum (-(a+b))

For solutions of -2 and 3, the constant will be (-2)(3) = -6. This eliminates choices C and D.

The sum of the solutions is -2+3 = 1, so the coefficient of x is -1, matching choice B.

GEOMETRY PROOFS!

NeX [460]

From the given figure ,

RECA is a quadrilateral

RC divides it into two parts

From the triangles , ∆REC and ∆RAC

RE = RA (Given)

angle CRE = angle CRA (Given)

RC = RC (Common side)

Therefore, ∆REC is Congruent to ∆RAC

∆REC =~ ∆RAC by SAS Property

⇛CE = CA (Congruent parts in a congruent triangles)

Hence , Proved

Additional comment:-

SAS property:-

"The two sides and included angle of one triangle are equal to the two sides and included angle then the two triangles are Congruent and this property is called SAS Property (Side -Angle-Side)

Find the area of the shaded region

kari74 [83]

Answer: To find the area of the shaded region :

Calculate the area of both shapes. The area of a rectangle is determined by multiplying its length times its width. The area of a circle is Pi (i.e., 3.14) times the square of the radius. Find the area of the shaded region by subtracting the area of the small shape from the area of the larger shape.

Step-by-step explanation: I cannot see the picture to answer your question but I hope this helps you find put your answer. :)
