if a(x) = 2x - 4 and b(x) = x + 2, which of the following expressions produces a quadratic function?
(ab)(x)
(a - b)(x)
(a + b)(x)

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.

the arc length is found by finding the circumference of the full circle (2xpixradius) and then dividing by 4 to find just one quarter of the circle (90 degrees).

  or  

sin y = 7/q

7 is the opposite side length, q is the hypotenuse

tan y = 7/r

7 is the opposite side length, r is the adjacent side length

using sohcahtoa ^^^^

cos y = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos y = r/q
