Answer:
Two times at (-1,0) and (2.5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
When the graph intersects or touches x-axis, y is equal to 0
so y = -2x^2 + 3x + 5
=> 0 = -2x^2 + 3x + 5
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a
so a = -2
b = 3
c = 5
substitute in the formula
x = [-3 +/- √(3^2 - 4x-2x5)]/2(-2)
x = [-3 +/- √(9 + 40)]/(-4)
x = [-3 +/- 7]/(-4)
x1 = (-3 + 7)/(-4) = 4/-4 = -1
x2 = (-3 - 7)/(-4) = -10/-4 = 5/2 = 2.5
so the graph has two x-intercepts (-1,0) and (2.5,0), therefore it intersects x-axis two times

Answer:
I think this is the right answer: 1/x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 suits, 2 suits are red (hearts and diamonds) while 2 are black (clubs and spades)
Since 13 cards are in each suit, 26 cards are red ( 2 * 13)
There are 52 total cards
P (red) = red cards/ total cards
= 26 / 52
= 1/2
Pythagorean theorm is( hypotenuse)^2=(base)^2+(perpendicular)^2
(18)^2-(9)^2=x^2
x=15.58
