The vertices of a triangle are listed below.Q(-3,7), R(8,7), S(-6,-5)
Which of the following correctly classifies the triangle?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: This question is a bit tedious. In order to answer it, we will have to find the distance between each vertex using the distance formula.

d² = (x - x)² + (y - y)²   Distance Formula
d² = (-3 - 8)² + (7 - 7)²   Substitute for points Q (-3,7) and R (8,7)
d² = -11² + 0²   Collect like terms
d² = 121   Square
d = 11   Take the square root of both sides to cancel out the exponent on the left

The distance between points Q and R is 11. Now let's use the formula on the rest of the points.

R and S

d² = (8 + 6)² + (7 + 5)²   Keep in mind that when you subtract a negative, it becomes a positive.
d² = 196 + 144
d² = 340
d = 18.4

Q and S

d = 12.4

This is scalene triangle, because none of the sides are equal. I was a bit rushed on this one, so you might want to check my math.

What is Quadratic equation?

Any equation containing one term in which the unknown is squared and no term in which it is raised to a higher power.

Assuming

a≠0...

First subtract c from both sides to get:

y-c=ax^(2)

Divide both sides by a and transpose to get:

x^(2) =(y-c)/(a)

So x must be a square root of (y-c)/(a) and we can deduce:

x=± \sqrt{(y-c)/(a)

So, the Value of x=±\sqrt (y-c)/(a)

Write all the factors of 24:

Answers

The factors are just numbers that can be multiplied to receive the number that is given.

The factors of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24.

1 × 24 = 24
2 × 12 = 24
3 × 8 = 24
4 × 6 = 24
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24 are all factors of 24. factors are two numbers that multiply together to get your answer. for example 1*24 2*12 3*8 4*6

Which function below correctly illustrates the absolute value function

Answers

The answer is the second choice:
a, if a is greater than or equal to 0 and
-a, if a is less than or equal to 0

You can check this by testing out values.
The absolute value of 5 is 5 while the absolute value of -5 is -(-5) or 5. This follows the chosen function.
