Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra states that the number of complex roots a polyomial has is equal to its highest exponent.  This is a squared polynomial; second degree; quadratic.  When it is factored, no matter what types of numbers you get as the solution, you will ALWAYS have 2 of them.  When this quadratic is factored, we get that x = 3 and x = 3.  That means that this is a quadratic that touches the x-axis at (3, 0).  It doesn't go through, it only touches.  We do have 2 roots, but since they're the same, we say we have a multiplicity 2 of that root.  The closest you'll come to that in your choices is A.  Apparently your text refers to multiplicity 2 as a double root.

What is the perimeter of ABC with vertices at A (-11,4) B(-7,8) and C (-4,4)
Alborosie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula,

AB=\sqrt{(-11-(-7))^{2}+(4-8)^{2}}=\sqrt{16+16}=4\sqrt{2}\\AC=\sqrt{(-11-(-4))^{2}+(4-4)^{2}}=7\\BC=\sqrt{(-7-(-5))^{2}+(8-4)^{2}}=\sqrt{4+16}=2\sqrt{5}\\\\

So the perimeter is 4\sqrt{2}+7+2\sqrt{5}
