<span>ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid with legs AB and CD
∴ AB = CD
</span>
<span>AB = 6y +5
</span>
<span>CD= 2y +1

∴ 6y + 5 = 2y + 1
6y - 2y = 5 - 1
4y = 4

∴ y = 4/4 = 1

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3+x)=36

12+4x=36

4x=36-12

4x=24

x=6

Proof: 4(3+x)=36

4(3+6)=36

12+24=36

36=36

$x^3-7x^2+14x-8=(x-4)(x2-3x+2)\\=(x-4)[x^2-x-2x+2]\\=(x-4)[x(x-1)-2(x-1)]\\=(x-4)(x-1)(x-2)$

x-intercepts are (4,0),(1,0),(2,0)

put x=0

y=-8

y -intercept is (0,-8)
