Answer:

JK=12

KI=16

Step-by-step explanation:

K\in\ [JI]\ \Rightarrow\ |JK|+| KI |=|KI|\\\\x^2-4x+3x-2=28\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ x^2-x-30=0\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ x^2+5x-6x-30=0\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ x(x+5)-6(x+5)=0\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ (x+5)(x-6)=0\\\\x=-5\ (excluded)\ or\x=6\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ \\|JK|=x^2-4x=6^2-4*6=36-24=12\\|KI|=3x-2=3*6-2=18-2=16\\\\Proof: 12+16=28\\

How to solve for X: X-B=A
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x−a)(x−b)=x2−(a+b)x+ab

Now, this with the third bracket.

(x2−(a+b)x+ab)(x−c)=x3−(a+b+c)x2+(ac+bc+ab)x−abc

But there’s another way to do this, which is easier. Assume the given expression is equal to 0, then, we can form a cubic equation as

x3−(sum−of−roots)x2+(product−of−roots−taken−two−at−a−time)x−(product−of−roots) , which is essentially what we got above.
