Answer:
Draw a vertical line passing through (-3,0)
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to find the discriminant
b²-4ac for each equation
if discriminant < 0 no real solutions because will be negative under the squareroot whhan you try to find the roots
if discriminant = 0 there is only one solution
if discriminant > 0 two real solutions
for your given problems
A. discriminant =(-2)²-4*2*15 will be negative
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation:

Note that

then

Rewrite the equation as

then

Answer:
Depth of the rain gutter is 8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s assume ‘x’ is the depth of the rain gutter
Then the width of the rain gutter can be written as 16 - 2x
Cross sectional area
A = depth x width
Substitute values
A = x*(16 - 2x)
A = 16x – 2x^2
Now according to axis of symmetry for maximum area x = -b/2a
x = -16/2*(-2)
x = 4 inches depth of rain gutter, substitute the value of x to get
Width of rain gutter 16 – 2(4) = 8 inches
Area of the rain gutter for maximum water flow
A = 4 * 8
A = 32 square inch.
