Write an equation for the parabolla

pentagon [3]

well, is noteworthy that an x-intercept is when y = 0 or namely is a solution or root of the quadratic, so we know then that the x-intercepts or solutions are at (-1,0) and (3,0), that simply means that

$\bf (\stackrel{x}{-1},\stackrel{y}{0})\qquad (\stackrel{x}{3},\stackrel{y}{0})\qquad \begin{cases} x = -1\\ x+1=0\\ \cline{1-1} x=3\\ x-3=0 \end{cases}~\hfill \implies ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{equation of the parabola}}{y = a(x+1)(x-3)} \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} x = 1\\ y = -8 \end{cases}\implies \underline{-8}=a(\underline{1}+1)(\underline{1}-3)$

$\bf -8=a(2)(-2)\implies -8=-4a\implies \cfrac{-8}{-4}=a\implies \boxed{2=a} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ y=2(x+1)(x-3)\implies y=2(\stackrel{\mathbb{FOIL}}{x^2-2x-3})\implies y=2x^2-4x-6$

If y varies directly with x and y = -15 when x = 3, find x when y = 10.

Anika [276]

Answer:

like here x= 3 and y= -15

here, its 5 times goes in negative

now if y = 10 TO X IS 5 TIME POSITIVE HERE = 10×5 = 50

On a piece of paper, use a protractor to construct right triangle DEF with DE=4 in. , m∠D=90° , and m∠E=45° .

uysha [10]

Answer: DF = 4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in triangle DEF,

In which DE = 4, $m\angle D=90^{\circ}$ , and $m\angle E=45^\circ}$

Since, $tan E = \frac{FD}{DE}$

⇒ $tan 45^{\circ} = \frac{FD}{DE}$

⇒ $1 = \frac{FD}{4}$

⇒ $FD = 4$

Thus, first option is correct.
