Here is the function graphed. This is what you asked for.
Answer:
2 or -2
Step-by-step explanation:
If x² - 8x = -12
Step 1
We find x by solving
x² - 8x = -12
We equate to zero
x² - 8x + 12 = 0
We factorise
x² - 6x - 2x + 12 = 0
x(x - 6) -2(x - 6) = 0
(x - 6) (x - 2) = 0
x - 6 = 0, x = 6
x - 2 = 0, x = 2
x = 6 or 2
Step 2
What is x - 4?
When x = 6
= 6 - 4 = 2
When x = 2
= 2 - 4 = -2
Therefore, x - 4 = 2 or -2
4(a-2)=3(a+4)
4a-8=3a+12
a=20
Answer:
Triangles a, b, and d
Step-by-step explanation:
The three triangles have a side length measurement, an angle measure, then another side length measurement
in that order (the order matters)
Answer:
8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Squares have equal side lengths so if we call each side x, then x × x gives us the area (32 cm²). This means that x² = 32 and therefore, one side is √32 cm.
Next, to work out the diagonal we can use Pythagoras' theory, since we can form a right-angled triangle. a² + b² = c² (c is the diagonal or the hypotenuse)
(√32)² + (√32)² = c²
(note: the square and the square root cancel out)
32 + 32 = 64
c² = 64 ∴ c = √64 which is 8
Hope this helps!
