Answer:
p = ½ (x₁ + x₂)
q = a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = a (x − x₁) (x − x₂)
Expand:
y = a (x² − x₁x − x₂x + x₁x₂)
y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x + x₁x₂)
Distribute a to the first two terms:
y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x) + ax₁x₂
Complete the square:
y = a (x² − (x₁ + x₂)x + ¼(x₁ + x₂)²) + ax₁x₂ − ¼ a(x₁ + x₂)²
y = a (x − ½ (x₁ + x₂))² + a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)
Therefore:
p = ½ (x₁ + x₂)
q = a (x₁x₂ − ¼ (x₁ + x₂)²)
Answer:
60 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Setting the proportion up:
x/25=24/10
Cross Multiply.
10x=24*25
10x=600
Divide both sides by 10.
x=60
Answer:
Just substitute, and the simplified form is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the values needed into the original equation. For example, if n=1
t(1)=15-2.5(1)=15-2.5=12.5. Or, if tn+1 substitute f(tn+1)=15-2.5(tn+1) and simplify.
tn+1-tn in its simplest form is just 1, as tn and -tn cancel out to leave 1.
Answer:

An angle bisector divides the angle measure into two equal parts. In triangle ABC, B is the point at which the angle lies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Picture segment BD drawn from point B of tri.ABC where it connects to segment AC, creating point D. Now picture E drawn on the newly created segment DC where it connects to point B and down to point C. Here's a drawing to better show this:
It's bisecting the bisected angle ABC. So, 140/2 = 70, and 70/2 = 35.
