We have been given the function f(x) = 60x^2 - 57x -18

Now, the given potential roots are -6/5, -1/4, 3, 6. In order to find the actual root of this function, we substitute the root in the given function and if we get zero, then that would be the actual zero.

f(-6/5)=60(-6/5)^2-55\cdot\frac{-6}{5} -18= \frac{684}{5}\neq 0\\\\f(-1/4)=60(-1/4)^2-55\cdot\frac{-1}{4} -18=0\\\\\\f(3)=60(3)^2-57(3)-18=351\neq 0\\\\f(6)=60(6)^2-57(6)-18=1800\neq 0

We got zero for the value -1/4.

Hence, the actual root of f(x) is -1/4.

B is the correct option.

For all the values of x,<br> f(x)=x²+3 g(x)=2x-1 <br> a) find fg(2) <br> b) find gf(2)
erik [133]

Answer:

12 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

To evaluate f(g(2)), evaluate g(2) then use the value obtained to evaluate f(x)

g(2) = 2(2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3, then

f(3) = 3² + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12

--------------------------------------------

(b)

To evaluate g(f(2)), evaluate f(2) the use the value obtained to evaluate g(x)

f(2) = 2² + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7, then

g(7) = 2(7) - 1 = 14 - 1 = 13

An investor purchased a house 8 years ago for ​$48,000 This year it was appraised at ​$73,500 Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d) b
raketka [301]

Answer:

b = $48000, m = $3187.5 / year

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a linear function is given as y = mx + b, where m is the rate of change, b is the value of y when x = 0, y = dependent variable and x = dependent variable.

Given that V = mt + b:

b = initial price of the house at 0 years = $48000

V = mt + 48000, At 8 years the house is appraised at ​$73,500

73500 = 8m + 48000

8m = 73500 - 48000

8m = 25500

m = 3187.5
