Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x^2-4x-12

Set equal to 0 to find the zeros

0 =x^2-4x-12

Factor.  What 2 numbers multiply to -12 and add to -4

-6*2 = -12  

-6+2 = -4

0= (x-6) (x+2)

Using the zero product property

0=x-6         0 = x+2

x=6            x = -2

zeros: -2,6

Vertex

h = -b/2a = - (-4)/ 2(1) = 4/2 = 2

OR  Average the roots  (-2+6)/2 = 4/2 =2

The y coordinate is found by substituting into the equation

y = (2)^2 -4(2) -12

y = 4-8-12

y =-16

vertex : (2, -16)

Answer:

x = -2, 6

Vertex: (2,-16)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 4x - 12

x² - 6x + 2x - 12

x(x - 6) + 2(x - 6)

(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0

x = -2, 6

h = -(-4)/2

h = 4/2

h = 2

k = 2² - 4(2) - 12

k = 4 - 8 - 12

k = -16

Vertex: (2,-16)

Solve for y<br> 2(3 + 3y) + y = 11
garik1379 [7]
<h2><u>EQUATION</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>

2(3 + 3y) + y = 11

First, apply the distributive property:

2(3 + 3y) + y = 11

6 + 6y + y = 11

6 + 7y = 11

Substract 6 from both sides:

6 - 6 + 7y = 11 - 6

7y = 5

Divide both sides by 7:

\dfrac{7y}{7} = \dfrac{5}{7}

\boxed{y = \dfrac{5}{7}}

<h3><u>Answer</u>. The value of y = 5/7.</h3>

Rewrite the Cartesian equation y=-3 as a polar equation.

Explanation:

Imagine we have a point  

P

with Rectangular (also called Cartesian) coordinates  

(

x

,

y

)

and Polar coordinates  

(

r

,

θ

)

.

The following diagram will help us visualise the situation better:

https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1223526375

https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1223526375

We can see that a right triangle is formed with sides  

x

,  

y

and  

r

, as well as an angle  

θ

.

We have to find the relation between the Cartesian and Polar coordinates, respectively.

By Pythagora's theorem, we get the result

r

2

=

x

2

+

y

The only properties we can say about  

θ

are its trigonometric functions:

y

/

r

⇒

y

=

r

sin

θ

cos

θ

=

x

/

r

⇒

x

So we have the following relations:

y

Now, we can see that saying

in the Rectangular system is equivalent to say

Line AC is tangent to circle O at point C<br> What is the measure of OAC?
Nuetrik [128]
AC is a tangent so by definition, it touches the circle at exactly one point (point C) and forms a right angle at the tangency point. So angle ACO is 90 degrees

The remaining angle OAC must be 45 degrees because we need to have all three angles add to 180
45+45+90 = 90+90 = 180

Alternatively you can solve algebraically like so
(angle OAC) + (angle OCA) + (angle COA) = 180
(angle OAC) + (90 degrees) + (45 degrees) = 180
(angle OAC) + 90+45 = 180
(angle OAC) + 135 = 180
(angle OAC) + 135 - 135 = 180 - 135
angle OAC = 45 degrees

Side Note: Triangle OCA is an isosceles right triangle. It is of the template 45-45-90.
