3 0

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar we can find x using similarity ratio

14/8 = (x+6)/(x-3) simplify first expression

7/4 = (x+6)/(x-3) cross multiply expressions

7×(x-3) = 4×(x+6)

7x-21 = 4x + 24 add like terms

3x = 45

x = 15

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = - 1/3 x + 2 and passes though the point (-5,2)
elena55 [62]

Answer:

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation has slope -1/3.  Any line perpendicular to the given line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -1/3, which comes out to +3.

Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x - h):

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

Find all roots: x^3-7x^2-12x = 0
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The roots are  0, 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3-7x^2-12x = 0   Take out x:

x(x^2 - 7x - 12) = 0  Factor the expression in the brackets:

x(x - 3)(x - 4) = 0

x = 0 or x - 3 = 0 or x - 4 = 0, so

The roots are  0, 3 and 4.
