How do I get the answer y= 2x^2+9x-5

Answer:

Quadratic Formula

so

x = -5

and

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you see a problem in this form, which you will see a lot of, you can try to factor it or use the "least squares" method or what have you, but those won't always work, unfortunately.

Fortunately, the quadratic formula will never fail you with quadratic expressions.

This is the Quadratic Formula

x = \frac{-b \frac{+}{-} \sqrt{b^2-4ac}  }{2a}

a is the the number on the variable with the exponent ^2

b is the number on the variable with no exponent

c is the third number

a and b cannot be equal to 0; c can be

Since we're looking for a number with an equation that has a square root in it, we're going to get two answers. These two answers come from the radical being separately added AND subtracted from the radical. It's basically two problems.

Plugging  in our numbers to this equation gives us x values of -5 and 0.5. This will always work with polynomials with factors of ^2 in them.

If you have a TI-84 calculator or newer, there's a tool on it that will factor polynomials like this one for you just by giving it the numbers.

Find the volume of the prism.
abruzzese [7]

First, let's find the area of the triangle:

A=\dfrac{1}{2}bh=\dfrac{1}{2}\times3\times4=6

Now, we multiply this area by the length of the prism, which is 20

20\times6=120

All 3 answers have 120. However, since we're calculating volume, it will be represented by \text{units}^3. Since no specific unit (such as cm or in) is specified, it will be left at that.

Thus, the answer is answer choice D.

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

The father is 60 years old and his son is half his age. how old was the boy when his father was 4 times his age?
Colt1911 [192]
Let y= years ago when dad's age was 4 times son's age

60-y=4(30-y)
60-y=120-4y
-y+4y=120-60
3y=60
y=60/3
y= 20 years ago

Then 30-20= 10 yrs. old, the boys age when his dad was 40 years old.

If f(x)=7x^2+3x+5, what is f(3+h)
babymother [125]

f(3 + h) = 7(3 + h) ^{2}  + 3(3 + h) + 5 = 7(9 + 6h + h ^{2}   + 5 = 63 + 42h + 7h ^{2}  + 9 + 3h + 5 = 7h ^{2}  + 39h + 14 = 7h ^{2}  + 39h =  - 14
