Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Factor the numerator is a polynomial of the form x² + bx + c
s² - 3s - 28 = (s - 7)( s + 4)
Substitute
Simplify like terms
Result s + 4
b)
Factor the numerator is a polynomial of the form x² + bx + c
c² + 5c - 24 = (c + 8)(c - 3)
Substitute
Simplify like terms c - 3
Result c - 3
x = -1 makes the lengths of segments PQ and PR equal zero.
That is not possible, so the solution x = -1 is discarded.
x = 8
PS = 3x + 3 + 21
PS = 3x + 24
PS = 3(8) + 24
PS = 24 + 24
PS = 48
