Answer:

The answer to your question is  4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Side AC = 6 ft

Side CB = 8 ft

hypotenuse = ?

difference = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean theorem

c = hypotenuse

a = short leg

b = long leg

                      c² = a² + b²

-Substitution

                      c² = 6² + 8²

-Simplification

                       c² = 36 + 64

                       c² = 100

-Result

                       c = 10 ft

2.- Calculate the difference between the hypotenuse and the shorter leg.

    difference = 10 - 6

                      = 4 ft

Find all relative extrema of the function. use the second derivative test where applicable. (if an answer does not exist, enter
Alinara [238K]
The given quadratic describes a parabola that opens upward. Its one absolute extreme is a minimum that is found at x = -3/2. The value of the function there is
  (-3/2 +3)(-3/2) -1 = -13/4

The one relative extreme is a minimum at (-1.5, -3.25).

_____
For the parabola described by ax² +bx +c, the vertex (extreme) is found where
  x = -b/(2a)
Here, that is x=-3/(2·1) = -3/2.
