XZ=15 and the perimeter of XWZ is 50. what is the length of WZ?

1 answer:

7 0

Assuming that this is an Isosceles Triangle which has 2 sides equal, then we can assume as well that XZ being the base of 15 and the total perimeter is XWZ = 50.

Perimeter = X + W + Z

Therefore;

XWZ (50) – XZ (15) = 35

Since we are assuming that this is an Isosceles triangle then 2 sides should have equal distance.

35 / 2 = 17.5

Hence, XW = 17.5 and ZW = 17.5

Perimeter = 15 + 17.5 + 17.5 = 50

Answer:

y = x² + 3x - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros are x = - 8 and x = 5, then the factors are

(x + 8) and (x - 5) and

y = (x + 8)(x - 5) ← expand factors

y = x² - 5x + 8x - 40, hence

y = x² + 3x - 40 ← in standard form
