We are given function f(x) = 3|x + 4| + a.

And it is said that a should be all those values such that there are no x-intercepts for given function f(x).

We know, the standard absolute function f(x) = a|x-h| have an x-intercept at (h,0).

But if we write fuction in form f(x) = a|x-h|+k, the value of k represents k units up or down of the x-axis.

We could also say, if we have value k other than 0, it will never touch( or cut)  the x-axis.

With respect to the given function the k is take by a variable.

So, the value of a can't be 0.

Therefore, we can write interval notation for a values as  

(-∞,0) ∪ (0,∞).

For the values a=8 which is a leg of a right triangle and value c=19 which is the hypotenuse find the length of the other leg b
FinnZ [79.3K]
C^2=a^2+b^2  we are given the hypotenuse of 19 units and one leg of 8 units so:

19^2=8^2+b^2

361=64+b^2

b^2=297

b=√297

b≈17.2 to the nearest tenth

What is 280 million in scientific notation 
Phantasy [73]
The rule of scientifinc notation is that we can use number between 0 and 10, so here we can use 2.8. Lets do this
280 000 000 = 2.8 * 100 * 1 000 000
Now we can just multiply 2.8 by 10 to the power of number of 0 reapeted
So 2.8*10^8 - its the result
