Melanie is making a piece of jewelry that is in the shape of a right triangle. The two shorter sides of the piece of jewelry are 12mm and 9 mm. Find the perimeter of the piece of jewelry.

Answer to your question: a. the fundamental theorem of algebra tells you that the equation will have two complex roots since the degree of the polynomial is 2. the roots are ​ x=1±i7√2 .number of roots=degree of polynomialhere, degree of polynomial is 2 so number of roots will be 2.hope it *_*

Y= -2x-1 the negative in front of the 2 is because the slope is negative and the -1 is because it’s down 1 on the y axis.
