<h3>How to find an approximate solution of a one-variable equation</h3>
The solution of the equation is between x = 4 and x = 5. Now we begin by evaluating each side of the expression (f(x) = x² - 5 · x + 4, g(x) = 2 / (x - 1)) at the average of x = 4 and x = 5.
x = (4 + 5) / 2
x = 4.5
f(4.5) = 4.5² - 5 · 4.5 + 1
f(4.5) = - 5 / 4
g(4.5) = 2 / (4.5 - 1)
g(4.5) = 4 / 7
The solution of the equation is between x = 4.5 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:
x = (4.5 + 5) / 2
x = 4.75
f(4.75) = 4.75² - 5 · 4.75 + 1
f(4.75) = - 3 / 16
g(4.75) = 2 / (4.75 - 1)
g(4.75) = 8 / 15
The solution of the equation is between x = 4.75 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:
x = (4.75 + 5) / 2
x = 4.875
f(4.875) = 4.875² - 5 · 4.875 + 1
f(4.875) = 25 / 64
g(4.875) = 2 / (4.875 - 1)
g(4.875) = 16 / 31
The <em>approximate</em> solution of the equation shown in the picture is x ≈ 39 / 8 (Right choice: B).

Answer:
A. Perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines are perpendicular if their slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other. Opposite, meaning if positive, the other slope is negative, and if negative, the other slope is positive. Reciprocal meaning, the number is flipped upside down, turning fractions into whole numbers and vice versa.
1/9
-1/9
-9
The slopes are perpendicular

Answer:
- see below for a diagram
- 15 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Stephanie is 1.8/1.2 = 1.5 times as tall as her shadow is long. We expect the same is true of the wind turbine.
The wind turbine's shadow is 10 m long, so its height is 1.5·(10 m) = 15 m.
The wind turbine is 15 m tall.
