5/18+7/12
=10/36+21/36
=31/36
Now we have to,
find the required value of x.
Let's begin,
→ 3x-2 = 2(x-5)
→ 3x-2 = 2x-10
→ 3x-2x = -10+2
→ x = -8
Hence, value of x is -8.
Answer: Second option: (4,0) and (-9,0)
f(x)=x^2+5x-36
The x-intercepts of the graph of a function f(x) are the values of the variable x that makes f(x)=y equal to zero. To find these values we only have to equal f(x)=y to zero:
f(x)=y=0
x^2+5x-36=0
Factoring the polynomial:
(x+9)(x-4)=0
Using that if a b=0, then: a=0 or b=0
with a=x+9 and b=x-4
x+9=0 or x-4=0
Solving for x:
x+9-9=0-9 or x-4+4=0+4
x=-9 or x=4
Then the x-intercepts are the poitns (x,y)=(x,0):
(4,0) and (-9,0)
