Given:
The quadratic equation is

To find:
The x-intercepts of the given equation.
Solution:
We have,

Splitting the middle term, we get



For x-intercepts, y=0.

Using zero product property, we get




So, the x-intercepts are (0.5,0) and (2,0).
Therefore, the correct option is a.
We have to calculate how would it take for a red kangaroo to jump 2 km, if he jumps at a rate of 40 km/h.
Formula for the velocity is: v = d / t, where d stays for the distance and t stays for the time.
Therefore: t = d / v
t = 2 km / 40 km/h
t = 0.05 h = 3 minutes
Answer:
It would take 3 minutes.
