Not sure if your the same person but I had already done the work for this problem....
Answer:
Statements 3, 4 and 5 are true.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 8x + 4
Using the quadratic formula:
x = [ -(-8) +/- √((-8)^2 - 4*1*4)] / 2
= (8 +/- √(64 - 16)) / 2
= 4 +/- √48 / 2
= 4 +/- 4√3/2
= 4 +/- 2√3.
So the third statement is true.
Converting to vertex form:
x^2 - 8x + 4
= (x - 4)^2 - 16 + 4
= (x - 4)^2 -12
So the extreme value is at (4, -12)
So the fourth statement is true.
The coefficient of the term in x^2 is 1 (positive) so the graph has a minimum.
I think the answer is C. The distance over which the force is applied. Hope this helps!
Consetive integers are 1 apart
they are
x,x+1,x+2
3 times the first added to the last is 22
3x+x+2=22
combine like terms
4x+2=22
minus 2 both sides
4x=20
divide both sides by 4
x=5
x+1=6
x+2=7
the numbers are 5,6,7
