The solutions would be +0.37 and -0.37.

When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5).  5/2=2.5.  We then square this number:  2.5²=6.25.  We add this value to both sides of the equation:

x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25
(x+2.5)² = 8.25

Take the square root of both sides:
√(x+2.5)² = √8.25
x + 2.5 = 2.87

Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"
x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5
x = 0.37

We have to take the positive and negative values for solutions, however, since a square root has both positive and negative answers.

A linear function h models a relationship in which the dependent variable decreases 2 units for every 3 units the independent va
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Slope=-2/3,  y-intercept=2, x-intercept=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the independent variable be x and dependent variable be y

y=h(x)

h is a linear function so it is represented in the general form of y=mx+c where

m is slope and c is the y-intercept.


Given "the dependent variable decreases 2 units for every 3 units the independent variable increases."

When x increases by 3, y decreases by 2

So the slope = rate of change of y / rate of change of x = -2/3


Given h(0)=2, h(0)=m(0)+c=2

c=2


Combining slope and y-intercept, y=-2/3*x+2

x-intercept is when y=0

0=-2/3*x+2

2/3*x=2

x=2*3/2=3

x-intercept=3
