Answer:

two vertex are: (1 , 6.2) , (1 , - 4.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A(-2, 1) and B (4, 1)    AB is a parallel segment with  x axis

The 3rd vertex P (x , y) will locate at the mid point of AB

x = (-2) + (4 - (-2)) /2 = 1       P (1 , y)

length AB = 4 - (-2) = 6

AP = AB (equilateral)

BP² = (4 - 1)² + (1 - y)² = 6²

1 - 2y + y² = 36 - 9 = 27

y² - 2y -26 = 0

y = ((-(-2)) ± √(-2)² - 4 x (-26)) / 2 = (2 ± √108) / 2 = 1 ± 5.2

y = 6.2 or y = -4.2

P (1 , 6.2) or P ( 1 , -4.2)

1) let 2x = a   and 3y = b

(a+b)⁴ = a⁴ + a³b + a²b² + ab³ + b⁴
Now let's find the coefficient of each factor using Pascal Triangle
     
                     0     |               1
                     1     |            1    1
                     2     |          1   2   1
                     3     |         1  3   3   1
                     4     |       1  4   6    4  1

0,1,2,3,4,.. represent the exponents of binomials 
Since our binomial has a 4th exponents, the coefficients are respectively:

(1)a⁴ + (4)a³b + (6)a²b² + (4)ab³ + (1)b⁴
Now replace a and b by their real values in (1):

2⁴x⁴ +(4)8x³(3y) + (6)(2²x²)(3²y²) + (4)(2x)(3³y³) + (1)(3⁴)(y⁴)

16x⁴ + 96x³y + 216x²y² + 216xy³ + 81y⁴

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A motorcycle has an initial speed of u m/s. It accelerates to a speed of 1.2u in 10 seconds

V = U + at

1.2u  = u  + a*10

=> a = 0.02u

S= ut + (1/2)at²

Distance in 1st 10 secs

S = u(10) + (1/2)(0.02)(10)²

=> S = 10u + u

=>  S = 11u  m

Constant speed 1.2u for 15 secs

S = 1.2u * 15

=> S = 18u m

Total Distance Covered d  = 11u + 18u = 29u  m

Prompt:
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Her answer is wrong because she the object cannot hit the ground at negative seconds. She could’ve have used other methods because she used the quadratic formula. The advantages is that it works for every situation. The disadvantages is that it takes longer. She should’ve used a different method.
