Answer:

14.9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If the road was created, the 3 different roads would form a right triangle where the new road would be the hypotenuse and the other 2 roads would be the legs.

We can use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse, or the new road:

a² + b² = c²

14² + 5² = c²

221 = c²

14.9 = c

= 14.9 miles

y = 3(x + 4)^2 + 31

Step-by-step explanation:

We can convert the given quadratic equation into its vertex form by completing the square:

y = 3x^2 + 24x + 43

= 3(x^2 + 8x) + 43

= 3(x^2 + 8x + 4) + 31

= 3(x + 4)^2 + 31

This is the vertex form of the given quadratic equation with (-4, 31) as its vertex
