Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: I DON'T CARE
The reflection across the x-axis only change the signal of the y coordinate. Hence, the new point is
.
5/9 equals 0.5555555556
The rounded answer would be 0.6
c:
Answer: 49
Step-by-step explanation:
a=1 ,b=14, c=?
b^2-4ac =0
(14)^2-4(1)(c)=0
196-4c=0
196=4c
c=49
Check:
(x)^2+2(x)(7)+(7)^2
x^2+14x+49
(x+7)^2
18 is the least common denominator of all the fractions, so you can eliminate fractions by multiplying the equation by 18.
(4.5*18)x +((7/9)*18)x + (2 1/3)*18 + ((1/6)*18)x = (5 1/18)*18
81x +14x +42 +3x = 91 . . . . . simplify
Collect terms.
98x + 42 = 91
98x = 49 . . . . . . . . . subtract 42
x = 49/98 = 1/2
The solution is x = 1/2.

You can also do the arithmetic with mixed numbers and fractions. The usual methods apply.
(4.5 + 7/9 + 1/6)x + 2 1/3 = 5 1/18
(49/9)x + 7/3 = 91/18
(49/9)x = 49/18 . . . . . . . subtract 7/3
x = (9/49)(49/18) = 9/18 = 1/2 . . . . . multiply by 9/49
This can be a little more tedious than the method above, but it works and it will give you the right answer. A calculator that works with fractions can make this solution as easy as the other one.
