Answer:
2x² +5x -12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
When p and q are roots of a quadratic, its factored form can be written as ...
(x -p)(x -q) = 0
Here, the roots are given as -4 and 3/2, so the factored form would be ...
(x -(-4))(x -(3/2) = 0
Multiplying by 2 gives us ...
(x +4)(2x -3) = 0
Expanding the product, we find the desired quadratic is ...
2x² +5x -12 = 0

Answer:
7 cm, 4.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The side lengths can be found from the law of cosines. Each triangle has legs 3 cm and 5 cm. The angle between these will be 60° or 120°. Then the two sides of the parallelogram are ...
s = √(a² +b² -2ab·cos(C))
s = √(3² +5² -2·3·5·(±1/2)) = √(34 ±15) = {√49, √19}
The two side lengths are 7 cm and about 4.4 cm.
