Answer:

(k+3)(k+4)

The zeros are -3 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

k2+7k+12

The middle number is 7 and the last number is 12.

This means we need two numbers that:

Add together to get 7

Multiply together to get 12

to fit in this equation (k+_)(k+_)

in this equation, it would be 3 and 4

3+4 = 7

3*4 = 12

Now we fill in the blanks to get

(k+3)(k+4)

To get the zeros, use the equations

k+3=0 and k+4=0

You end up with

k=-3 and k=-4

Sloan [31]

The side is 8 feet = 8*12 inches = 96 inches

Plants are needed if they are to be spaced 8 inches apart around the outside of the bed

96/8 = 12 ... so we need 12 plants on each side, please note it is including the corners.

If we not incluse corner, the flowers will be 10 each side.

Means total flower : 10 * 4 (each side) + 4(corner)

The total needed is 44 plants. : Answer

Answer:

x = 5.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply trigonometric function to find x

Reference angle = 46°

Hypotenuse = 8

Adjacent length = x

Apply CAH:

Cos 46 = Adj/Hyp

Cos 46 = x/8

8 × Cos 46 = x

5.55726696 = x

x = 5.56 (nearest hundredth)
