Basically, to solve this, we need to use the equation:
x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0
Now, to do this we need to simplify:
(x + 4)(x + 2) = 0
(When you multiply these two, you get x^2 + 6x + 8, you can check)
To make 0, one of these two have to make 0. In this case, one could be -4, and one could be -2
So, x = -4, and x = -2 (-2 is larger, -4 is smaller.)
Knowing this, we need to use -b/2a to find the vertex:
-6/2 = -3
Knowing that x is -3, we input it:
-9 + 18 - 8 = 1
Knowing this, we can say that the vertex is (-3, 1)

You can factor it by considering factors of 8 that add to 6.
  8 = 1·8 = 2·4
The latter pair add to 6, so your factorization is
  f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 4)
This product is zero when one of the factors is zero. There are 2 factors, hence 2 zeros of the function.
For x+2 = 0
  x = -2
For x+4 = 0
  x = -4

The graph of a parabola is symmetrical about its vertex, so the line of symmetry is halfway between the zeros, at x = (-2-4)/2 = -3. The y-coordinate of the vertex is the value of the function at this point,
  f(-3) = (-3+2)(-3+4) = -1

a) Your two separate zeros are
  x = -4 (smaller value)
  x = -2 (larger value)


b) The vertex of the parabola is
  vertex = (-3, -1)

You can use a graphing calculator to answer these questions directly from the graph (or to check your work, as the case may be).

Answer:

arc AC = 111°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠APC is a central angle, so arc AC is equal to the measure of ∠APC.

∠APC and ∠BPC are supplementary.  So, m∠APC + m∠BPC = 180

m∠APC + 69 = 180

m∠APC = 111

arc AC = 111°

Answer:

Answer:

50.2

Step-by-step explanation:

ut =  \sqrt{ {6}^{2}  +  {5}^{2} }   \\  \sqrt{36 + 25}  \\  \sqrt{61 }  \\ using \: cosine \: rule \\ cos \: u =  \frac{ {5}^{2} + 61 - 36 }{2 \times 5 \times  \sqrt{61} }  \\  \\  =  \frac{25 + 61 - 36}{78}  \\  \\  = \frac{50}{78 }  \\  \cos \: u = 0.64 \\ m∠U. = 50.2
