Answer:

  q = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

When the quadratic has roots p and r, it can be factored as ...

  (x -p)(x -r) = x² -(p+r)x +pr

So, the sum of the roots is 14, and their difference is 6. This lets us find the roots from ...

  p + r = 14

  p - r = 6

  2p = 20 . . . add the two equations

  p = 10

  r = 14 -p = 4

The value of interest is then ...

  q = pr = (10)(4)

  q = 40

__

The graph shows the roots to be 4 and 10, as we found.

Which is a right triangle formed using a diagonal through the interior of the cube? A cube. The top face has points G, B, C, F a
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: The correct option is triangle GDC

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for further details.

The dimensions give for the cube are such that the top surface has vertices GBCF while the bottom surface has vertices HADE.

A right angle can be formed in quite a number of ways since the cube has right angles on all six surfaces. However the question states that the diagonal that forms the right angle runs "through the interior."

Therefore option 1 is not correct since the diagonal formed in triangle BDH passes through two surfaces. Triangle DCB is also formed with its diagonal passing only along one of the surfaces. Triangle GHE is also formed with its diagonal running through one of the surfaces.

However, triangle GDC is formed with its diagonal passing through the interior as shown by the "zigzag" line from point G to point D. And then you have another line running from vertex D to vertex C.

The sum of three numbers is 102. The first number is 6 more than the second. The third number is 4 times the second. What are th
const2013 [10]

Answer:

1st number: 22

2nd number: 16

3rd number: 64

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y + z = 102

x = 6 + y

z = 4y

plug that in!

(6 + y) + y + (4y) = 102

get rid of the parenthesis (I added them so you could see what I was replacing) and add like terms.

6 + 6y = 102

move 6 to the other side.

6y = 96

y = 16

now that you know one number, you can solve the equations for the rest!

x = 6 + (16)

z = 4(16)

__________________________________________________________

x = 22

y = 16

z = 64

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

An axis of symmetry is a line about which a figure is symmetrical. If a figure can be folded such that the two parts exactly match, the fold line is an axis of symmetry. A figure can have one line of symmetry, many lines of symmetry, or no lines of symmetry.
