There are two 'zeroes' at   x = -1  and -5      these are the roots

so the equation becomes:

(x+1)(x+5) = 0

x^2 +6x +5 = 0         y = x^2+6x+5   has the same roots , but not the same vertex

the vertex needs to be shifted up    

the y value needs to be -2   at x = -3

(-3)^2 + 6(-3) + 5 = -4        Needs to be -2         multiply all of the coefficients by 1/2

1/2x^2 + 3x + 2.5     then when x = -3

   4.5    + -9  +  2.5  = -2

y =  1/2x^2 + 3x + 2.5 

Arc WY = 360 - 156-86 = 118^o

^Angle WXY =  1/2   (118) = 59^o

Question is unclear   60 687 ?     The product of 'their' ages    .....   who?   The triplets only...or all four of the siblings?

Sides of larger figure    12 x  7      x 4 =

Endcaps                        7 x  7       x 2 =

smaller figure                 2 x 2       x 2 =

                                       2 x 7      x 2 = .....     add them all up.....

It is a function because it passes the vetical line test

It is NOT a one-to-one function because it does not pass the horizontal line test.

Width goes from   2    to    3.5    scale factor   1.75

3 x 1.75 = 5.25      length must increase from  3   to  5.25      2.25 m increase

Unroll the glass cylinder to make a rectangle .....then reflect the image(to make for the fact the fly must cross over the lip of the glass to the inside) to make a double rectangle ....then use the measurements to calculate the distance

sqrt (12^2 + 9^2)  = 15

I don't know if that will work.....the honey is INside the glass....the fly is on the OUTside.

OK....I think there is a shorter way anyway.....I think it is 15 cm.....diagram to follow.
