Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
AE = 3, EB = 4, CE = x, and ED = x +1,
Equating chord AB and CD
AE*EB = CE*ED
3*4 = x*(x+1)
12 = x² + x
x² + x - 12 = 0
x² +4x - 3x - 12 = 0
x(x + 4) - 3(x + 4)
(x + 4) = 0 or (x - 3) = 0
x = - 4 or x = 3
Distance can't be negative :
x = 3
Answer:
A. g(x) + 3/5x^2 - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Well we can tell that the parabola is wider than its parent function "y=x^2",
Meaning x is now a fraction or a decimal <u>less than 1</u>.
So we can eliminate choices B and D.
Also we can see that the y intercept is at -3 because thats where the parabola touches the y axis.
<em>Thus,</em>
<em>the answer is choice A. </em><em>.</em>
