8 0

Answer:

(p + 6)(p + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe you meant p^2 + 8p + 12 = 0, in which " ^ " indicates exponentiation.

Note that 12 = 2*6, and that these two factors, 2 and 6, add up to 8. Thus,

p^2 + 8p + 12 = 0 = (p + 6)(p + 2)

Find the distance between the points (13, 20) and (18, 8).<br> 13<br> 7<br> 11

Lana71 [14]

Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached graph.

A third point (18,20) may be added to the two given points to form a right triangle with sides 5 and 12. The distance, x, between the original two points is given by x^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

x^2 = 25 + 144

X^2 = 169

x = 13

The admission to a local fair is $10 for each adult and $6 for each child. Each ride costs $1.50 for an adult and $1 for a child

S_A_V [24]

So first start out by writing an expression for the cost of the child and the adult separately.

Child:
6 + 1r ($6 + $1 per ride)

Adult:
10 + 1.5r ($10 + $1.50 per ride)

to find how much more the adult will spend, just do Adult Expression - Child Expression which will be:

10 + 1.5r - (6 + 1r) just simplify this

For Part B, use your equation from part A where r = 7

A triangle had two sides of length 10 and 10 what value could the length of the third side be check all that apply

vekshin1

Answer:

10 < x < 20

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of any two sides of a triangle has to be greater than the 3rd side, so the maximum value of the third side in this instance is 19.9999999 because 10 + 10 = 20

Describe the end behavior of the graphed function

Troyanec [42]

You have to consider the “ends” of the x-axis, the far right (for infinitely large values of x) and left (for infinitely small values of x) of the graph.

From the diagram above you can see that:

When $x\rightarrow -\infty,$ then $y=f(x)\rightarrow 1$ (notice that as the values of x get smaller and smaller, the graph gets closer and closer to the line y=1);
When $x\rightarrow \infty,$ then $y=f(x)\rightarrow 1.$ (notice that as the values of x get larger and larger, the graph gets closer and closer to the line y=1).
