Answer:

f(x) = x² + 14x + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the zeros of -12 and -2, then it means that:

x + 12 = 0 and x + 2 = 0

As a proof, if you isolate x, you'll end up with the given values:

x + 12 - 12 = 0 - 12

x = -12

x + 2 - 2 = 0 - 2

x = -2

In terms of using these values into the quadratic function:

(x + 12) (x + 2)

Perform the FOIL method in order to find the quadratic function:

(x + 12) (x + 2)  

f(x) = x² + 2x + 12x + 24

f(x) = x² + 14x + 24   ⇒ This is the quadratic function, given the zeros as x = -12, and x = -2.

Answer:

(x+12) (x+2)

x(x+12)+2(x+12)

x^2+12x+2x+24

x^2+14x+24

A box contains 10 balls, of which 3 are red, 2 are yellow, and 5 are blue. Five balls are randomly selected with replacement. Ca
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The required probability is 0.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

red balls = 3

yellow balls =  2

blue balls = 5

Selected balls = 5

Number of elemnets in sample space = 10 C 5 = 1260

Ways to choose 1 red ball and 4 other colours =  (3 C 1 ) x (7 C 4) = 105

Ways to choose 5 balls of other colours = 7 C 5 = 21

So, the probability is

\frac{105}{1260} + \frac {21}{1260}\\\\\frac{126}{1260}=0.1

luda_lava [24]

i. Let t be the line tangent at point J. We know that a tangent line at a  point on a circle, is perpendicular to the diameter comprising that certain point. So t is perpendicular to JL
let l be the tangent line through L. Then l is perpendicular to JL ii. So t and l are 2 different lines, both perpendicular to line JL.
2 lines perpendicular to a third line, are parallel to each other, so the tangents t and l are parallel to each other.
