Answer: 2 units.
Step-by-step explanation: When you graph the points given, it gives you this shape in the image below. The hypotenuse (longest side of triangle) is found by doing the following:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs (the other sides of the triangle) and c is the hypotenuse.
5^2 + 2^2 = 29.
√ 29 ≈ 5.38, and that is the length of the hypotenuse.
The shortest side is the bottom side, which is 2 units. Therefore, that is your answer.

Answer:
256
Step-by-step explanation:

4 optional for every digit
4×4×4×4 = 256
Set p(x) = 0 and solve for x.
x^3 - 4x^2 + 3x - 12 = 0
x^3 - 4x^2 ... + 3x - 12 = 0, cut in half and factor
x^2 (x-4) ... +3 (x-4) = 0, regroup
(x^2 + 3) (x-4) = 0, set each part equal to zero and solve
x^2 + 3 = 0, subtract 3 from both sides
x^2 = -3, take square root of both sides
x = sqrt (-3) which is imaginary.
x-4 = 0, add 4 to both sides
x = 4
Since we do not want complex/imaginary numbers involved, our answer is 4. They will break even in 4 years.
