Answer:
b = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for b:

Cross multiply:

You can calculate it using the law of cosines: c^2=a^2+b^2-2*a*b*cos(C)
your triangle is
CD=15=a
CE=?=b
DE=CE+3=b+3=c
and C=90°
-> insert those values, with c substituted with b+3 to remove c
c^2=a^2+b^2-2*a*b*cos(C)
(b+3)^2=15^2+b^2-2*15*b*cos(90)
cos(90)=0->
(b+3)^2=15^2+b^2
b^2+2*3*b+3^2=225+b^2
6b+9=225
6b=216
b=36=CE
DE=CE+3=36+3=39
Answer:
-7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic formula is ax^2 + bx + c
In this case, x = -b/2a, which is -7/(2(4)) = -7/8
