Answer:

Second option, scale factor is 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that ∠B ≅ ∠E and ∠C ≅ ∠F, therefore, ΔABC ~ ΔDEF by the AA Similarity for Triangles Theorem which states that if two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent in two triangles, then those two triangles are similar. To find the scale factor, all we have to do is DF / AC = 5/2 or 2.5.

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are

maks197457 [2]

The quadratic equation $y = ax^2 +bx+c$ can be written in the form:
$y = a(x-p)(x-q)$
Where p and q are the roots of the equation.
Given p = 4, q = -2, a = 3, the quadratic will look like this:
$y = 3(x-4)(x+2)$
Finally, distribute and combine like terms to put it in standard form.
$y = 3(x^2 - 4x+2x -8) \\ \\ y = 3(x^2 -2x-8) \\ \\ y = 3x^2 -6x -24$

M+M+5=23

(Subtract 5 from both sides)

2M=18

M=9
