The zeros of this function are 1 and -1
This is because you have to solve the problem as follows:

y=x^2-1
Replace y with 0, because we’re looking for the value of x when y is 0
0= x^2 -1
Add 1 to both sides to help get x alone
x^2= 1
Square root both sides to get x alone
x=+_1
Or
x= 1 and x= -1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-1=0

Add  1 to both sides of the equation.

x^2= 1

Take the square root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the left side.

x = ± √ 1

Any root of  1  is  x = ± 1

First, use the positive value of the  ±

to find the first solution.

x= 1

Next, use the negative value of the  ±

to find the second solution.

x = − 1

The complete solution is the result of both the positive and negative portions of the solution.

x = 1 , − 1

Madison rode her bicycle 4.5 miles in 0.75 hour. At the rate, how long would it take her to ride her bicycle an additional 6 mil
scZoUnD [109]
Set up equal ratios

t/6=0.75/4.5  multiply both sides by 6

t=4.5/4.5

t=1 hour

So it will take Madison one hour to ride another six miles.

already in standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a quadratic in standard form is

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

y = x² + 4x + 3 ← is in standard form

with a = 1 , b = 4 , c = 3
