To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
x = [ -5 ± √((5)^2 - 4(-11)(-3)) ] / ( 2(-11) )
x = [-5 ± √(25 - (132) ) ] / ( -22 )
x = [-5 ± √(-107) ] / ( -22)
Since we conclude that √-107 is nonreal, the answer to this question is that there are no real solutions.
The <em>trigonometric</em> function that represents the curve seen in the picture is f(x) = 4.5 · sin (π · x / 2 - π) - 6.5.
<h3>How to derive a sinusoidal expression</h3>
In this problem we need to find a <em>sinusoidal</em> expression that models the curve seen in the picture. The most typical <em>sinusoidal</em> model is described below:
f(x) = a · sin (b · x + c) + d (1)
Where:
- a - Amplitude
- b - Angular frequency
- c - Angular phase
- d - Vertical midpoint
Now we proceed to find the value of each variable:
Amplitude
a = - 2 - (-6.5)
a = 4.5
Angular frequency
b = 2π / T, where T is the period.
0.25 · T = 4 - 3
T = 4
b = 2π / 4
b = π / 2
Midpoint
d = - 6.5
Angular phase
- 2 = 4.5 · sin (π · 4/2 + c) - 6.5
4.5 = 4.5 · sin (π · 4/2 + c)
1 = sin (2π + c)
π = 2π + c
c = - π
The <em>trigonometric</em> function that represents the curve seen in the picture is f(x) = 4.5 · sin (π · x / 2 - π) - 6.5.

Answer:
Width = 7 cm
Length = 15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let width = w
Length = w + 8
Area of rectangle = 105 sq. cm
length * breadth = 105
(w + 8)*w = 105
Use distributive property
w² + 8w = 105
w² + 8w - 105 = 0
Sum = 8
Product = -105
Factors = 15 , -7 {15 +(-7) = 8 & 15*(-7) = -105}
w² - 7m + 15m - 105 = 0
w(w - 7) + 15(m - 7) = 0
(w - 7)(w + 15) = 0
Ignore w + 15= 0 as measurements will not be in negative value
w - 7 = 0
w = 7
Width = 7 cm
Length = 7 + 8 = 15 cm
