Step-by-step explanation:

is a root of the quadratic

This quadratic isn't factorable so use the quadratic formula

The plus and minus sign after b means we going to have two roots.
The roots are

and

We subsitue those values for Beta.

Answer:
B. What was the highest temperature this month?
Step-by-step explanation:
Rory is recording the <em>high</em><em>est</em><em> temperature</em> for the duration of the day for month's worth of data.
B. is the easiest one to answer, as you simply will have to look for the greatest number within the set, and that will be the answer.
A. is too broad, and does not imply that only the "high temperature" is needed, rather just a leveled temperature within day in that month.
C. is the opposite of what Rory had recorded, and without data, he cannot answer it.
D. is answerable as well, but, again, the only temperature recorded is the high temperature. Temperature can fluctuate depending on the time of the day, and can be in the 50s one hour and the 90s in another.

X = pencils, y = pens
8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75
4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50
Answer: 17/50
Step-by-step explanation:
First, to add fractions, we must find a common denominator, in this case, 100.
Then, we must make the fractions being added all have the common denominator.
So, we must multiply 3/10 * 10/10, which equals 30/100
30/100 + 4/100
Then, just add across the numerator to get 34/100, which can be simplified to 17/50
