Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7)

To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is

(x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

x- intercepts are (- 1, 0 ), (- 4, 0 ), (7, 0 )

Find the equation of a circle with a center at (7,2) and a point on the circle at (2,5)?

Answer:

(x-7)^2+(y-2)^2=34

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of a circle with a center at (7, 2) and a point on the circle at (2, 5).

First, recall that the equation of a circle is given by:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Where (<em>h, k</em>) is the center and <em>r</em> is the radius.

Since our center is at (7, 2), <em>h</em> = 7 and <em>k</em> = 2. Substitute:

(x-7)^2+(y-2)^2=r^2

Next, the since a point on the circle is (2, 5), <em>y</em> = 5 when <em>x</em> = 2. Substitute:

(2-7)^2+(5-2)^2=r^2

Solve for <em>r: </em>

<em />(-5)^2+(3)^2=r^2<em />

Simplify. Thus:

25+9=r^2

Finally, add:

r^2=34

We don't need to take the square root of both sides, as we will have the square it again anyways.

Therefore, our equation is:

(x-7)^2+(y-2)^2=34

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First step to this is to replace the variables with their coordinated values. Remember to use parentheses.

4(2)-2(2+4)+1=?

We can start to simplify.

4(2)-2(6)+1

Then---

8-12+1

-4+1
