Using quadratic formula you can have a maximum of two solutions. When you set this problem equal to zero, your a=-1, b=-10, c=2
A general equation of a linear function is expressed as y = mx + b where m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope is the rate of change of y with respect x which is equal to 4 for this problem. The y-intercept represents the value when x is equal to zero. It is the initial value of y. In this case, it is equal to $1,000. The linear equation would be:
y = 4x + 1000
assuming y is the income and x is the consumption.
At an income (y) equal to $20,000, we can calculate for the consumption.
20000 = 4x + 1000
19000 = 4x
x = 4750
Answer:
First, let's address the general case.
When we have two points (a,b) and (c,d)
The distance between those points can be written as:
D = √( (a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2)
In this case, the points are:
(-2,4) and (2,4)
Then the distance is:
D = √( (-2 - 2)^2 + (4 - 4)^2) = √(-4)^2 = 4.
The equivalent expression to this is: |-2| + |2|
because:
I-2I = 2
I2I = 2
I-2I + I2I = 2 + 2 = 4.
0.49 is the answer because that is <span>the approximate probability</span>
