Number 1 is 6 number two is -8 and number three is -10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic in factored form is usually expressed as: 
where the sign of a and b depends on the sign of the zero. And I said "usually" since sometimes the x will have a coefficient. Anyways in the quadratic there are two zeroes at x=-1 and x=3. This can be written as: 
. Notice how the signs are different? This is because when you plug in -1 as x you get a factor of (-1+1) which becomes 0 and it makes the entire thing zero since when you multiply by 0, you get 0. Same thing for the x-3 if you plug in x=3. Now a is in front and it can influence the stretch/compression. To find the value of a, you can take any point (except for the zeroes, because it will make the entire thing zero, and you can technically input anything in as a)
I'll use the point (1, -4) the vertex
-4 = a(1+1)(1-3)
-4 = a(2)(-2)
-4 = -4a
1 = a. So yeah the value of a is 1
So the equation is just:
Answer:
-2x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Just simplify
Okay, to find length CE, your going to know the value of x. Length BC + CE = BD + DE.3x+47+x+26=27+x+10Simplify the equation to get4x+73=37+xyou can choose one of four ways to continue, but I will choose to subtract x3x+73=37Subtract 73 from both sides of the equal sign3x=-36divide by 3 on both sides of the equal sign to get the value of xx=-12Now, plug in -12 for x in length CE to get -12+26=14
1/5÷4
multiply by reciprocal
1/5×1/4
1/20
