AB = x + 8

Mathematics

Answer: The length of BC is 7

Step-by-step explanation: Assuming the lengths of the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are congruent, then

AB=DC and

AD=BC

Inputting the values of AB, DC and AD as given in the question:

x + 8 = 3x ...(1)

x + 3=? ...(2)

We have to solve for the value of x to get the actual lengths and thus ascertain BD.

From equation (1):

8 = 3x - x

8 = 2x

8/2 = x

Therefore, x = 4.

If x = 4 then equation(2) would be

4 + 3= 7.

Hence, the actual lengths of the quadrilateral are:

AB = 4 + 8. DC = 3(4)

=12. =12.

AD = 4 + 3. AD = BC

= 7. Therefore, BC = 7.

Hence, it is confirmed that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram since both the opposite sides are proven to be congruent.

The function g(x) = –3x2 – 36x – 60 written in vertex form is g(x) = –3(x + 6)2 + 48. Which is one of the transformations applie
nikklg [1K]
The general vertex form is this:
v(x) = a (x-h)2 + k
where (h,k) is the coordinates of the of vertex.
and a indicates the widening or shrinking of the function compared to another parabolic function. If a become bigger, the graph becomes narrower. If a becomes negative, the graph is reflected over the x-axis.

Comparing f(x) = x2 with g(x) = -3(x+6)2 + 48, we have the following transformations:
The graph is reflected over the x-axis
The graph is made narrower.
The graph is shifted 6 units to the left.
The graph is shifted 48 units up.

From the choices we only have:
<span>The graph of f(x) = x2 is made narrower</span>
