Answer:
a = 7.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure has been re-labelled and attached to this response.
From the figure, the larger right triangle DAB and the small right triangle BCA are similar. This is because;
i. They have two corresponding congruent angles which are<em> the right angle</em>
and <em>angle B</em>
Therefore, we can say that;
<em>Cross multiply</em>
a x a = 13 x 4
a² = 52
a = √52
a = 7.2
Note: The figure showing the similar triangles has also been attached to this response.
Answer:
Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.
Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or
an [a,b] entirely to the right of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.
Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.
By using the midpoint formula and the equation of the line, the equation of the line of symmetry is x = - 2.
<h3>How to derive the equation of the axis of symmetry </h3>
In this question we know the locations of two points with the same y-value, which means that the axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis and that both points are equidistant. Thus, the axis of symmetry passes through the midpoint of the line segment whose ends are those points.
First, calculate the coordinates of the midpoint by the midpoint formula:
M(x, y) = 0.5 · (- 7, 11) + 0.5 · (3, 11)
M(x, y) = (- 2, 11)
Second, look for the first coordinate of the midpoint and derive the equation of the line associated with the axis of symmetry:
x = - 2
By using the midpoint formula and the equation of the line, the equation of the line of symmetry is x = - 2.

Answer:
5x^2+22x-12 x cannot be -5, -4, -2
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this, your denominator must be the same. Let's start by writing out the two different quadratic formulas:
x^2 + 6x + 8 <-- This should factor out to (x+4)(x+2)
x^2 + 7x + 10 <-- This should factor out to (x+5)(x+2)
Now that you have factored out the two quadratics, plug them into the equation.
5x - 3
(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+2)
Now as we know, -2 cannot be x because it will turn the entire equation undefined. Multiple top and bottom with (x+5) on the right side and (x+4) on the left side.
5x (x+5) - 3(x+4)
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Focus on the top. 5x(x+5) will turn out to be 5x^2+25x. 3(x+4) will turn out to be 3x+12. Combine the two equations because now they are equal to each other and do the subtraction:
5x^2+25x - (3x+12) = 5x^2+22x-12 x cannot be -5, -4, -2
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
