(2/3) / 3 = 1/x...2/3 to 3 lawns = 1 to x lawns
cross multiply
(2/3)(x) = (3)(1)
2/3x = 3
x = 3 * 3/2
x = 9/2 or 4 1/2 lawns can be cut with a full tank of gas
Answer:
456 / 10 = <u>45.6</u>
So the answer lies between <u>45</u> and <u>46</u>.
Answer:
x = - 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the sketch represents
y = x² + bx + c
The graph crosses the y- axis at (0 , - 14), thus c = - 14
y = x² + bx - 14
Given the graph crosses the x- axis at (2, 0), then
0 = 2² + 2b - 14
0 = 4 + 2b - 14 = 2b - 10 ( add 10 to both sides )
10 = 2b ( divide both sides by 2 )
b = 5
y = x² + 5x - 14 ← represents the graph
let y = 0 , then
x² + 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 7)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
The x- intercepts are x = - 7 and x = 2
The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is midway between the x- intercepts, thus
the x- coordinate of the turning point is
=
= - 2.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Im sorry i dont really know ur anwer. Hope someone else can help you.
<u>Given</u>:
The given equation is 
We need to determine the approximate value of q.
<u>Value of q:</u>
To determine the value of q, let us solve the equation for q.
Hence, Subtracting
on both sides of the equation, we get;

Subtracting both sides of the equation by 2q, we have;

Dividing both sides of the equation by -1, we have;

Now, substituting the value of
, we have;

Subtracting the values, we get;

Thus, the approximate value of q is 0.585
Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
