Answer:

Without any studying, the score would be about 328

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of an equation represents the point where its graph crosses the y-axis. At this point the value of x is always equal to 0.

The y-intercept of the equation in this context would represent the Math SAT score of a student who did not do any studying, that is the number of hours spent studying, x = 0.

Substitute x = 0 in the given equation and solve for y;

y = 24.387(0) + 328.182

y = 328.182

Therefore, Without any studying, the score would be about 328

Solve this x²+8/10 -x = 10/2

AysviL [449]

$x^2+\frac{8}{10}-x=\frac{10}{2}\\
x^2-x+\frac{8}{10}-\frac{10}{2}=0\\
x^2-x+\frac{8}{10}-\frac{50}{10}=0\\
x^2-x-\frac{42}{10}=0\\
x^2-x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{42}{10}=0\\
(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{42}{10}\\
(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{5}{20}+\frac{84}{20}\\
(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{89}{20}\\
x-\frac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{89}{20}} \vee x-\frac{1}{2}=-\sqrt{\frac{89}{20}}\\
x=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{89}}{\sqrt{20}} \vee x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{89}}{\sqrt{20}}\\


$
$x=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{89}}{2\sqrt{5}} \vee x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{89}}{2\sqrt5}}\\
x=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{445}}{10} \vee x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{445}}{10}}\\
x=\frac{5+\sqrt{445}}{10} \vee x=\frac{5-\sqrt{445}}{10}}\\$

(PLEASE HELP NEED ANSWER ASAP)

Answer:

C a1= -2

an = an-1 +3

Step-by-step explanation:

an = -2+ (n-1)3

What is the first term? Let n=1

a1 = -2 + 0*3

a1 = -2

The difference between the terms is +3 (coefficient on (n-1))

The second term is the first term +3

The third term is the second term plus 3

The next term is the previous term +3

so an = an-1+ 3
