Answer:
Yes, twice
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation will intersect the x-axis when y = 0, so we have
x² - 4x = -3 now solve this quadratic for x...
x² - 4x + 3 = 0
factor...
(x - 3)(x - 1) = 0,
so at x = 1 and x = 3, the function crosses the x-axis

Answer:
Bed A --- Third Option
Bed B --- Fifth Option
Step-by-step explanation:
Flower Bed A)
The formula for circumference is:
The diameter of A is 10 feet. So, its radius is 5 feet.
Substitute 5 for r. So, the circumference of Bed A is:
The formula for the area of a circle is:
Substitute 5 for r:
Square and simplify:
So, the circumference of Bed A is 10π feet and its area is 25π square feet.
Therefore, match Bed A to the third option.
Flower Bed B)
The radius of Bed B is 6 feet. Again, we can use the circumference and area formulas. Substitute 6 for r for circumference:
Multiply:
Substitute 6 for r for the area formula:
Square and simplify:
So, Bed B has a 12π feet circumference and a 36π square feet area.
Therefore, match Bed B to the fifth option.
And we're done!

Answer:
2x² +5x -12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
When p and q are roots of a quadratic, its factored form can be written as ...
(x -p)(x -q) = 0
Here, the roots are given as -4 and 3/2, so the factored form would be ...
(x -(-4))(x -(3/2) = 0
Multiplying by 2 gives us ...
(x +4)(2x -3) = 0
Expanding the product, we find the desired quadratic is ...
2x² +5x -12 = 0
Answer:
x = 2√2
y = 2√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the ratio of the two legs of the two smaller interior right triangles. (refer to attached diagrams for the triangles - I have outlined one in blue and the other in red)
These will be equal since the triangles are similar
shorter leg : longer leg
(blue triangle = red triangle)
⇒ x : 4 = 2 : x
⇒ x/4 = 2/x
⇒ x² = 8
⇒ x = √8
⇒ x = 2√2
Now we have x, we have the two legs of the right triangle with hypotenuse labelled y.
Using Pythagoras' Theorem a² + b² = c² (where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse)
⇒ 4² + (2√2)² = y²
⇒ y² = 24
⇒ y = √24
⇒ y = 2√6
