I think the answer is -7/4.
Please consider the attached file.
We can see that triangle JKM is a right triangle, with right angle at M. Segment KM is 6 units and segment MJ is 3 units. We can also see that KJ is hypotenuse of right triangle.
We will use Pythagoras theorem to solve for KJ as:
Now we will take positive square root on both sides:
Therefore, the length of line segment KJ is 
and option D is the correct choice.
Answer:
D. 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of the equation of a circle is:
(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 where r is the radius.
Comparing:
(x + 5)^2 + (y + 7)^2 = 21^2
So r^2 = 21^2
making r = √21^2
= 21.

Answer:
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
This function has two roots: -3 and 5. Most likely it is a quadratic (all of which have two roots).
Then f(x) = a(x + 3)(x - 5)
The graph goes through (1. 8): Therefore, y = 8 when x = 1:
f(1) = a(1 + 3)(1 - 5) = 8, or
a(4)(-4) = 8, or
-16a = 8, which leads to a = -1/2.
Thus the quadratic in question is f(x) = (-1/2)(x + 3)(x - 5), or
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
