A = 1/2 (b x h)
A = 1/2(12.5 x 2.4)
A = 1/2(30)
A = 15
F(x) = -1.50x + 40.....basically, this is saying that Gloria has 40 bucks in her lunch account and each meal costs her 1.50.
By changing the -1.50 to -2.75 means she is paying more for her meals...the cost of a meal went up from 1.50 to 2.75.
Answer:
500
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -0.2 and x = -3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms in the given equation, by subtracting 2x^2 from both sides:
6x^2 + 15x + 3 = 2x^2
-2x^2 = -2x^2
----------------------------------
4x^2 + 15x + 3 = 0
This is a quadratic equation. We'll find the two solutions using the quadratic equation
-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)
x = ---------------------------
2a
Here the coefficients of the quadratic are a = 4, b = 15 and c = 3.
Thus, the discriminant b^2 - 4ac is 15^2 - 4(4)(3), or +177
and from that we know we'll find two real, unequal roots.
-15 ± √177
The roots are: x = ------------------- , or x = -0.2 and x = -3.5
