Answer: Exponential growth
Find the factors of -3:
1,-3 and 3,-1
which ever adds up to 1 multiplied by 2
the answer is (2x+3)(x-1)
hope this helps
A)24 boards/1 * 47.5 inch/boards * 1 ft/12in = 95 ft.
according to dimensional analysis the answer is 95 ft.
b) 95/8 is approximately 12 so 12 boards are needed.
355,000 would be the right answer. the 6 behind the 4 is the factor true. like if it was a 4 it would be 354,000
Kate: Please, for clarity, use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: 2x^2 + x − 4 = 0
And please include the instructions.
2x^2 + x − 4 = 0 can be re-written: 2(x^2 + (1/2)x - 2) = 0
Dividing both sides by 2 results in x^2 + (1/2)x - 2 = 0
Let's "complete the square:" x^2 + (1/2)x + (1/4)^2 - (1/4)^2 = 0
Then (x+(1/4))^2 = (1/4)^2
Taking the sqrt of both sides: x+1/4 = plus or minus 1/4
Solving for x: x = -1/4 plus or minus 1/4
Solving for x (continued): x = 0 and x = -1/2
