8x^2 - 16x - 15 = 0
x = [ -(-16) +/- sqrt((-16)^2 - 4*8*-15) / ] 2*8
= 2.696, -0.696
Answer:
12 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please consider the complete question.
A model ship has a mast that is 7 inches tall. A right triangular sail goes from the top of the mast to 1 inch from the bottom of the mast. The length of the base of the sail is 4 inches. The height of the sail is along the mast. Find the area of the sail.
The sail will form a right triangle with respect to mast, whose height is 6 inches and base is 4 inches as shown in the diagram.
The area of the sail will be equal to area of triangle.
Therefore, the area of the sail is 12 square inches.
If the result is reflected over x-axis and vertically stretched by a factor of 5, the result will be g(x) = -5(x - 1)²
<h3>Transformation of functions</h3>
Transformation is a way of changing the position of an object o the xy plane. Given the parent function expressed as
f(x) = x^2
If the function is shifted to the left by unit, then we will have h(x) = (x - 1)²
If the result is reflected over x-axis and vertically stretched by a factor of 5, the result will be g(x) = -5(x - 1)²

The value of x will be obtained as follows:
1331x^4-216=0
1331x^4=216
divide through by 1331
x^4=216/1331
x=(216/1331)^(1/4)
x=(6^3/11^3)^(1/4)
x=(6/11)^(3/4)
