The answer would be $3472
Answer:
It is geometry
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
23. x = 4; DE = 44
24. x = 25; DS = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
23. Point S is the midpoint of DE, so ...
DS = SE
3x +10 = 6x -2
12 = 3x . . . . . . . . . add 2-3x
4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then DS has length ...
DS = 3x +10 = 12 +10 = 22
and DE is twice that length, so ...
DE = 44
__
24. DS is half the length of DE, so is ...
DS = DE/2 = 56/2
DS = 28
Then x can be found from ...
DS = x +3
28 -3 = x = 25 . . . . . substitute value for DS

<em>Comment on problem 24</em>
Sometimes it is easier to work parts of a problem out of sequence. Here, finding DS first makes finding x easier.
f(x) = x^2 + 6x - 7
y = x^2 + 6x - 7
y = (x - 1)(x + 7)
x + 7 = 0
x = -7
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
The x-intercepts are -7 and 1.
Since the leading coefficient is a positive, the graph will point upwards.
So, the graph of the function is D.
