Answer:

b = 7, c = -44

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadratic equation has the solutions -11 and 4, the two factors are:

(x+11)(x-4)=0

Since when we use the zero factor property we get

x+11=0 ⇒ x= -11

x-4=0 ⇒  x=4

Thus, we have used the zero factor property in reverse to find the factorization of the quadratic equation.

Now we develop the multiplications between parenthesis:

(x+11)(x-4)=0\\x^2-4x+11x-44=0\\x^2+7x-44=0

So b is the number that accompanies the x: b = 7

and c is the independent number: c = -44

The vertices of a triangle are P(−3, −4), Q(3, 4), and R(−6, −3). Name the vertices of Rx = 0 (PQR).
Katyanochek1 [597]
The correct answer is <span>A) P'(3, −4), Q'(−3, 4), R'(6, −3)</span>

Rx = 0 indicates a reflection over the y-axis. 

The rule for such a transformation is:
(x, y) --> (-x, y)
which means that the x-coordinate changes sign and the y-coordinate stays the same.

Therefore:
P<span>(-3, -4) --> P'(3, -4)
Q(3, 4) --> Q'(-3, 4)
R(-6, -3)</span> --> R'(6, -3)

These points are those in option A).

Which of the following is not an example of a recursive sequence?
wolverine [178]
A recursive pattern is a sequence of numbers that entails a pattern between succeeding numbers. in this case, we can see that sequence 2 has an arithmetic difference of 9, that is the proceeding terms are 40, 49, 58..  The third one has also an arithmetic difference that is increasing by 3 each. The answer then is A which has no pattern.
