Answer: +21

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given, we are informed that at first down, a football team lost 16 yd and they after two downs, the team had an overall gain of 5 yd.

The number of yards that were gained on second down can be represented by x. We can then form the question as an equation as:

x - 16 = 5

x = 5 + 16

x = 21

The team gained 21 yards.

Write a quadratic function whose zeros are -3 and -4

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

f(x) = (x -(-3))(x -(-4))

Step-by-step explanation:

The function can be written as the product of binomial terms whose values are zero at the given zeros.

(x -(-3)) is one such term

(x -(-4)) is another such term

The product of these is the desired quadratic function. In the form easiest to write, it is ...

f(x) = (x -(-3))(x -(-4))

This can be "simplified" to ...

f(x) = (x +3)(x +4) . . . . simplifying the signs

f(x) = x^2 +7x +12 . . . . multiplying it out
