In order to solve the given problem, use the tangent identity.
tan A = o / a
where a is the angle the football player kicks the ball
o is the height of the goal post
a is the distance of the ball from the yard

from the formula
a = o / tan A
a = 3.33 / tan 10
a = 18.89 yards

 If the trapezoid below is reflected across the x-axis, what are the coordinates of B'?
Grace [21]
The x-coordinate remains the same as the x-coordinate of point B.
The y-coordinate becomes the additive inverse of the y-coordinate of point B.

Answer: B. (3, -8)

S = d/t

st = d

t = d/s

The time going is t1.
The time returning is t2.
The total time is 4 hours, so we have t1 + t2 = 4

The speed of the current is c.
The speed going is 9 + c.
The speed returning is 9 - c.

t1 = 16/(9 + c)

t2 = 16/(9 - c)

t1 + t2 = 16/(9 + c) + 16/(9 - c)

4 = 16/(9 - c) + 16/(9 + c)

1 = 4/(9 - c) + 4/(9 + c)

(9 + c)(9 - c) = 4(9 - c) + 4(9 + c)

81 - c^2 = 36 - 4c + 36 + 4c

81 - c^2 = 72

c^2 = 9

c^2 - 9 = 0

(c + 3)(c - 3) = 0

c + 3 = 0   or   c - 3 = 0

c = -3   or   c = 3

We discard the negative answer, and we get c = 3.

The speed of the current is 3 mph.

The quadratic formula, has a part we call the "discriminant" defined by the variables that are inside the square root, and is denotated by "delta":

<span>Δ=<span>b2</span>−4ac</span> Whenever we solve a quadratic equation that is complete and we analyze the discriminant, we can get 3 scenarios: <span>if→Δ>0<span>=></span>∃<span>x1</span>,<span>x2</span>/a<span>x2</span>+bx+c=0</span> This just means: "if the discriminant is greater than zero, there will exist two x-intercepts" And for the second scenario: <span>if→Δ=0→∃<span>xo</span>/a<span>x2</span>+bx+c=0</span> This means: "if the discriminant is equal to zero, there will be one and only one x-intercept" And for the last scenario: <span>if→Δ<0→∃x∉R/a<span>x2</span>+bx+c=0</span> This means that :"if the discriminant is less than zero, there will be no x-intercepts" So, if we take your excercise and analyze the the discriminant: <span>3<span>x2</span>+7x+m=y</span> we will find the values that satisfy y=0 : <span>3<span>x2</span>+7x+m=0</span> And we'll analyze the discriminant: <span>Δ=<span>72</span>−4(3)(m)</span> And we are only interested in the values that make the discriminant equal zero: <span><span>72</span>−4(3)(m)=0</span> All you have to do is solve for "m".
