Answer:

by applying Pythagoras theorem;

the ladder(13m) acts as hypotenuse

the wall (12m) acts as height

the distance between the the two is the base

therefore

a² + b² = c²

b²= c²- a²

b²= 169 - 144

b² = 25

√b² = √25

b= 5m

the distance is 5m

w = 4

L = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

L = length of rectangle

w = width of rectangle

L = 3 + w

A = 28

A = L*w

=(3+w) * w

28 = 3w + w^2

w^2 + 3w - 28 = 0

w^2 + 7w - 4w - 28 = 0

w ( w + 7 ) - 4 ( w + 7 ) =0

( w - 4 ) ( w + 7 ) = 0

w = 4. and w = -7

take the postive value, w = 4

therefore L= 3+4 = 7

Which of the following is the graph of f(x) = x2 + 3x − 4?
xenn [34]

Answer:

2nd graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x² + 3x - 4

To find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

x² + 3x - 4 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 4)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

The only graph with zeros at x = - 4 and x = 1 is the 2nd graph
