There is no real solution
Answer: -5/12
Step-by-step explanation: Before multiplying two fractions together by multiplying across their numerators and multiplying across their denominators, you should always try to cross-cancel as your first step.
So in this problem, the 2 and 8 cross-cancel to 1 and 4.
Also, watch out for your signs. In this problem we have a negative times a positive so we know that our answer will be negative.
Now we can multiply across the numerators and across the denominators.
So we have 5 · 1 which is 5 and 4 · 3 which is 12.
So our answer is -5/12.
Be very careful with your signs!
I'm assuming you're referring to problem 6. You are asked to find the number of x intercepts or roots, which is another term for "zero". I prefer the term root or x intercept as "zero" seems misleading. Anyways, all we do is count the number of times the graph crosses the x axis. This happens 4 times as shown in the attached image below. I have marked these points in red. The graph can directly cross over the x axis, or it can touch the x axis and then bounce back. Either way, it is considered an x intercept.
<h3>Answer: there are 4 x intercepts (or 4 roots)</h3>
[(8 - 2 * 29)]/3
Let's solve inside the brackets first.
According to PEMDAS, multiplication gets solved before subtraction so multiply 2 * 29 in the parentheses.
[(8 - 58)]/3
Subtract 58 from 8 in the parentheses.
(-50)/3
Divide -50 by 3.
-16.667 or -16 2/3 is your answer.
Answer:
third grid
Step-by-step explanation:
.3×3=.9, as that is just .3 + .3 + .3
The third grid has 9/10 boxes colored, which is the same as .9
Hope this helps! :)
