Put brackets equal 0

(2x + 1) (x - 1) = 0

(2x + 1) = 0

-1, then ÷2

x = - 1/2 or - 0.5

(x - 1) = 0

+1

x = 1

So, x = - 0.5 & x = 1

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = -0.5

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can set each factor to 0 and solve for x in both.

  1. (2x + 1) = 0
    2x = -1
    x = -0.5
  2. (x - 1) = 0
    x = 1

There are 2 solutions for x, -0.5 and 1.

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = -( x-2)^2 +16

We want when h(x) = 0

0 = -( x-2)^2 +16

Subtract 16 from each side

-16  = -( x-2)^2 +16-16

-16 = -( x-2)^2

Divide by -1

16= ( x-2)^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt(16) = sqrt(( x-2)^2 )

±4 = x-2

Add 2 to each sdie

2 ±4 = x-2+2

2+4 = x     2-4 =x

6 =x           -2 =x

since time cannot be negative

x=6

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and (0,-4)
Arte-miy333 [17]

y = mx + b

To find the slope(m), you use the slope formula:

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

You plug in the points into the equation.

m = \frac{-4 - (-4)}{0 - 2}

m = \frac{-4+4}{0-2} = \frac{0}{-2} =0

The slope is 0

y = 0x + b

Any number multiplied by 0 is 0. So:

y = b

To find b, you plug in the y value of either of the points.

-4 = b

Your equation is:

y = -4 (This is a horizontal line)
