Answer:

x = -8 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given

f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)

recall that at any point on the x-axis, y = 0 [i.e f(x) = 0]

hence to find where the graph crosses the x-axis, we simply substitue f(x) = 0 into the equation and solve for x

f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)

0 = (x+8) (x - 4)

Hence

either,

(x+8) = 0 ----> x = -8  (first crossing point)

or

(x-4) = 0 ------> x = 4 (second crossing point)

Hence the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 4

Triangle MRN is created when an equilateral triangle is folded in half.
Rus_ich [418]

The value of y based on the values given ib the equilateral triangle will be 4.

<h3>How to illustrate the triangle?</h3>

From the information given, MN is one of the sides of the equilateral triangle. Therefore, side MR will be:

= 1/2 × 8 = 4

In the above, it should be noted that MR was calculated since it's half of the value of MN which is 8.

Here, value of y based on the values given ib the equilateral triangle will be 4.
