You need to note first two things.
1. The function f(x) need to be a continuous function on [-3,-1] (indeed f(x) is a polynomial function, is continuous on every real number x)
2. Take the closed interval [-3,-1]
Now, evaluate f(-3) and f(-1).

So, we have f(-3) < 0 and f(-1). So,
, then by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there exist
such that
.
It would be figure b, figure c and figure D
Answer:
a = 10 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle, A = 51 cm²
base, b = 10.2 cm
Let height of triangle be a cm
<em><u>Formula:-</u></em>




hence, the missing length is 10 cm
