Because the coefficient of x^2 is -1, we know that a will be -1.  Knowing that the coefficient of x is -4, we can calculate that p=2.  Thus, we have -1(x+2)^2+q is our equation.  This is equal to -x^2-4x-4+q.  As the constant term must be 2, we can then see that q is 6.

As such, we have -1(x+2)^2+6=0 as our factorization.

To solve this equation, we can use the quadratic formula.  Plugging in values, we have:

\frac{4+-2 \sqrt{6} }{-2}
which is equal to: (when the fraction is simplified)
-2+- \sqrt{6}

Angela bought a bookmark in the shape of an arrow as shown below. The base and height of the triangle are both 3 inches.
Lina20 [59]

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. The area of the arrow is 11.25 in².

<h3>What is an area?</h3>

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. It is measured in square units such as cm2, m2, and so on. To find the area of a square formula or another quadrilateral, multiply its length by its width.

For the given problem, the image is given below.

The area of the arrow is,

Area =  Area of rectangle + Area of triangle

        = (1.5 in × 4.5 in) + (0.5×3×3)

        = 6.75 in² + 4.5 in²

        = 11.25 in²

Hence, the area of the arrow is 11.25 in².
