Answer:

x = 10
y ≈ 8.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of these triangles are proportional, so you have ...

x/5 = 20/x

x² = 5·20 . . . . . . . cross multiply

x = √100 = 10

and ...

y/15 = 5/y

y² = 15·5 . . . . . . cross multiply

y = √75 ≈ 8.7

Find the x and y intercepts of the quadratic equation f(x)=-x^2+4x-4

earnstyle [38]

X - Intercept
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
 0 = -x² + 4x - 4
 x = -(4) +/- √((4)² - 4(-1)(-4))
 2(-1)
 x = -4 +/- √(16 - 16)
 -2
 x = -4 +/- √(0)
 -2
 x = -4 +/- 0
 -2
 x = -4 + 0 x = -4 - 0
 -2 -2
 x = -4 x = -4
 -2 -2
 x = 2 x = 2

The solution to the problem is {2, 2}, or {2}. The x - intercept of the problem is (2, 0).

Y - Intercept
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
f(x) = -(0)² + 4(0) - 4
f(x) = -(0) + 0 - 4
f(x) = -0 + 0 - 4
f(x) = 0 - 4
f(x) = -4

The y - intercept of the problem is (0, -4).
