Answer:
The length of the third side is between 16 inches and 64 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of a side of a triangle is between the sum and the difference of the lengths of the other two sides.
First, we need both sides in the same units. Let's convert feet to inches.
2 ft * (12 in.)/(ft) = 24 in.
The sides measure 24 inches and 40 inches.
Now we add and subtract the two lengths.
40 in. + 24 in. = 64 in.
40 in. - 24 in. = 16 in.
The length of the third side is between 16 inches and 64 inches.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is x=-20.
6+ -28 -x =-2
You first add 28 to each side=6+-x=26 then you minus 6 from each side=-x=20.
Then you divide 20 by -x resulting in x=-20
Answer:
C) The parabola is narrower and reflected across the x-axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original parabola has equation:

The transformed parabola has equation

How wide the graph is can be determined by the absolute value of the coefficient.
The smaller the absolute value of the coefficient, the wider the graph.
Since

The original graph is wider than the transformed graph.
Also the negative factor tells us there is a reflection in the x-axis.
