Find the x-intercepts for the parabola defined

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(- 2, 0 ), (1, 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 2x² + 2x - 4

To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is

2x² + 2x - 4 = 0 ← divide through by 2

x² + x - 2 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 2)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

Thus x- intercepts are (- 2, 0) and (1, 0)

815 gal/h=_______qt/sec
Nastasia [14]
815 x 360 =  293,400 gal per second.

293,400 gal ÷ 4 quarts = 73,350 quarts per sec.

I'm fairly certain that's right - someone correct me if I'm mistaken.
