Answer:

The zeros of the function are

x=2+2\sqrt{5}

x=2-2\sqrt{5}

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=x^{2}-4x-16

This is a vertical parabola open upward (the leading coefficient is positive)

The vertex is a minimum

Remember that

The zeros of the function are the values of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

x^{2}-4x-16=0

Move the constant term to the right side

x^{2}-4x=16

Complete the square

x^{2}-4x+2^2=16+2^2

x^{2}-4x+4=20

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x-2)^{2}=20 ---> the vertex is the point (2,-20)

take square root both sides

x-2=\pm\sqrt{20}

x=2\pm\sqrt{20}

Simplify

x=2\pm2\sqrt{5}

The zeros of the function are

x=2+2\sqrt{5}

x=2-2\sqrt{5}

using a graphing tool

In the diagram below, O is circumscribed about quadrilateral DEFG. What is
Nimfa-mama [501]

Since O is circumscribed about quadrilateral DEFG, the value of x is equal to: D. 68°.

<h3>What is a supplementary angle?</h3>

A supplementary angle can be defined as two (2) angles or arc whose sum is always equal to 180 degrees. Mathematically, a supplementary angle can be calculated as follows:

Q + R = 180°.

In Geometry, the opposite angles of any cyclic quadrilateral that is inscribed inside a circle always form a supplementary angle. Thus, we would determine the value of x by using the mathematical expression above:

x + 112° = 180°

x = 180° - 112°

x = 68°

How many revolutions will a car wheel of diameter 22 in. make as the car travels a distance of one mile
Marianna [84]

It would be take upto 999 revolutions.

<em>Let try to solve it,</em>

Let n represent number of revolutions.

We are asked to find the number of revolutions it will take for a car wheel of diameter 30 in. to travel a distance of one mile.

1 mile = 63360 inches.

We will use circumference of circle formula to solve our given problem.

Circumference = pi*d , where, D represents diameter of circle.

Now, we will set the product of n and circumference of circle equal to 63360 inches as:

pi*22*n= 63360

n= 63360*7/ 22*22

n= 443520/444

n= 998.91

Therefore It would be take upto 999 revolutions.

2/3 x (-6/7 + 4/5) = (2/3 x 4/5) x (-6/7) : verify

Hi my lil bunny!

❀ _____.______❀_______._____ ❀

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

(\frac{2}{3}x) ( \frac{-6}{7} + \frac{4}{5}) = [\frac{\frac{2^x4}{3} }{5} ] ( \frac{-6}{7} )

\frac{-4}{105} x = \frac{-4x^5}{35}

Step 1: Subtract (-4)/35x^5 from both sides.

\frac{-4}{105} x - \frac{-4}{35x^5} = \frac{-4x^5}{35} - \frac{-4x^5}{35}\\\\\frac{4}{35}x^5  + \frac{-4}{105} = 0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

x(0.114286 x^4 - 0.038095 ) = 0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

x = 0 or 0.114286 x^4 - 0.038095 = 0\\\\x = 0 or x = -0.759836 or x = 0.759836

So the answer is :  x = 0 or x = - 0.759836 or x = 0.759836
