Use the diagram to identify 4 collinear points

12

step-by-step explanation:

a triangle's   full angle is 180 degrees so 180 - 156 = 24. 24/2=12

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)

f(x) is   are being squared

g(x) is   increasing by 2

h(x) is adding .25 each time

k(x) is taking the square root

f(x) and k(x) are exponential functions
