How do you convert 8.5 to a fraction explain how you do this please thank you.

1 answer:

3 0

.5 equals one half.
8 is 8 over one (8/1)
8 + 1/2 = 8 1/2
To make it an improper fraction multiply the denominator (bottom number) by the whole number and add the numerator (top). 8*2=16+1=17
Then, put this number over the existing denominator. 17/2

Find the zeros of f(x) = x^2+5x-6.<br> A. {-2,3}<br> B. {-6,1}<br> c. {-2,-3}<br> D. {-6,-1}

Arisa [49]

Answer:

x^2+5x-6

a = 1 b = 5 and c = -6

Using the quadratic formula:

x = [-5 +- sq root (25 -4 * 1 *-6) ] / 2 * 1

x = [-5 +- sq root (49)] / 2

x = [-5 +- 7] / 2

x1 = 1

x2 = -6
