Answer:
The x-intercepts are the points (-4,0). (2,0) and (9,0)
The location of the x-intercepts in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The x-intercepts of a function are the values of x when the value of the function is equal to zero
we have

using a graphing tool
The x-intercepts are the points (-4,0). (2,0) and (9,0)
see the attached figure
The values of x are x = -0.77 and x = 3.27
<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>
To calculate the value of x. we start by using the following equivalent ratio
2x : (3.5 + x + 1.5) = x + 0.5 : x + 1.5
Evaluate the like terms
2x : (5 + x) = x + 0.5 : x + 1.5
Express the ratio as a fraction
2x/5 + x = x + 0.5/x + 1.5
Cross multiply
2x(x + 1.5) = (5 + x)(x + 0.5)
Open the brackets
2x^2 + 3x = 5x + 2.5 + x^2 + 0.5x
Evaluate the like terms
x^2 - 2.5x - 2.5 = 0
Using a graphing calculator, we have
x = -0.77 and x = 3.27
Hence, the values of x are x = -0.77 and x = 3.27

Answer:
7.83 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
At her constant pace, Nina's time for 6 km will be found by the proportion ...
(time for 6 km)/(6 km) = (time for 9 km)/(9 km)
time for 6 km = (6 km)/(9 km) × (75 min) = 50 min
Jo's time for the same distance will be 4 minutes less: 50 -4 = 46 min. Jo's speed is ...
speed = distance/time
= (6 km)/(46/60 h) = 360/46 h ≈ 7.83 km/h . . . . Jo's speed
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
From the 6 km point, the remaining race is half the distance already run, so will take half the time already taken. As we know, Nina will finish in 25 more minutes; Jo will finish in 46/2 = 23 more minutes, 2 minutes ahead of Nina.
Error= 0.1/2, 0.05
4.8 + 0.05 = 4.85
6.3 + 0.05 = 6.35
4.85 x 6.35 = 30.7975 cm (when rounded, gives 30.80 cm).
