Answer:

3 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²-2x-12=0
x²-x-6=0
x²+2x - 3x-6=0
x(x+2)-3(x+2)=0
(x-3)(x+2)=0
x-3=0 ⇒ x= 3
x+2=0 ⇒ x= -2

Help i don't understand please lolololol

Set the equations equal to each other and solve for the variable x. then use the answer from x and plug it in to the equations and you should get an answer

3x=63

63÷3=x

21=x

x=21

that is the value of x

73 is the answer to the top equation and the bottom equation in the triangle. Meaning the equations are equal to each other when you have 21 plugged in for the variable x.
make sure to put your label if it asks for it. it means the book or the teacher. go by what the teacher says if it is different from what the book says

Answer:

55 ft... The ladder must extend 55ft

Step-by-step explanation:

$c = \sqrt{a ^{2} + b ^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{33 ^{2} + 44 ^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{1089 + 1936 } \\ = \sqrt{3025} \\ c = 55$

the function intersects its midline at (-pi,-8) and has a maximum point at (pi/4,-1.5) write an equation

Tcecarenko [31]

The equation that represents the <em>sinusoidal</em> function is $x(t) = -8 + 6.5 \cdot \sin \left[\left(\frac{2}{3} \pm \frac{4\cdot i}{3}\right)\cdot t + \left(\frac{2\pi}{3} \pm \frac{7\pi \cdot i}{3} \right)\right]$ , $i\in \mathbb{Z}$ .

<h3>Procedure - Determination of an appropriate function based on given information</h3>

In this question we must find an appropriate model for a <em>periodic</em> function based on the information from statement. <em>Sinusoidal</em> functions are the most typical functions which intersects a midline ( $x_{mid}$ ) and has both a maximum ( $x_{max}$ ) and a minimum ( $x_{min}$ ).

Sinusoidal functions have in most cases the following form:

$x(t) = x_{mid} + \left(\frac{x_{max}-x_{min}}{2} \right)\cdot \sin (\omega \cdot t + \phi)$ (1)

Where:

$\omega$ - Angular frequency
$\phi$ - Angular phase, in radians.

If we know that $x_{min} = -14.5$ , $x_{mid} = -8$ , $x_{max} = -1.5$ , $(t, x) = (-\pi, -8)$ and $(t, x) = \left(\frac{\pi}{4}, -1.5 \right)$ , then the sinusoidal function is:
