222 student tickets

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

$x_{1} =-14\\\\x_{2} =6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^{2} +8x-84=0\\\\x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\\\a=1; \: \: b=8; \: \: c=-84\\\\x=\dfrac{-8 \pm \sqrt{8^{2}-4 \cdot 1 \cdot (-84) } }{2 \cdot 1}=\dfrac{-8 \pm \sqrt{400 } }{2}=\dfrac{-8 \pm20}{2} =-4 \pm 10\\\\x_{1} =-14\\\\x_{2} =6$

How do I find the y intercept in a fraction

Furkat [3]

ANSWER:

Both functions have the same slope

The linear equation does not have a y-intercept

The table and the grahp express an equivalent function

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

In order to compare, we must calculate the slope of the table, knowing that the equation in its slope and intercept form is the following:

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{where m is the slope and b is y-intercept} \end{gathered}$

The formula to calculate the slope is the following:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The points are (-6, -9/2) and (4,3), replacing:

$m=\frac{3-(-\frac{9}{2})}{4-(-6)}=\frac{3+\frac{9}{2}}{4+6}=\frac{\frac{15}{2}}{10}=\frac{15}{20}=\frac{3}{4}$

The slope is 3/4

Now, for b

x = 4

y = 3

m = 3/4

replacing:

$\begin{gathered} 3=\frac{3}{4}\cdot4+b \\ b=3-3 \\ b=0 \end{gathered}$

The equation is:

$y=\frac{3}{4}x$

Therefore, the true statements are:

• Both functions have the same slope

,

• The linear equation does not have a y-intercept

,

• The table and the grahp express an equivalent function

THIS IS 100 POINTS SOMEBODY PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HELP MEEEEE

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: Option #4: the 0.2 could be changed to 2.

Explanation:

The table is designed to make the concept of percentages more understandable. The table first allocates the total amount of 70 in terms of its "fifths," or 20% parts. Then it expresses these parts in the last row of the table, showing that 20% of 70 is 14 and all the five parts sum up to 70 again.

Now, Mikel is supposed to express 40% of the amount. So she writes (incorrectly): 0.2 * 14. This statement needs to be changed to 2 * 14 (two times 14 = 28), to correspond to 2 times 20%, or 40% of 70.

This is reflected in the last (fourth) option "The 0.2 in the expression could be changed to 2."

Option #3 is incorrect because changing 14 to 70, will result in an incorrect number (2.8).

Options 1 and 2 are similarly incorrect (as can be easily verified)
