Answer:
(
, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is
2x² + 3x - 2 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 2 × - 2 = - 4 and sum = + 3
The factors are + 4 and - 1
Use these factors to split the x- term
2x² + 4x - x - 2 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
2x(x + 2) - 1 (x + 2) ← factor out (x + 2) from each term
(x + 2)(2x - 1) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 1 ⇒ x = 
The x- intercepts are (- 2, 0 ), (
, 0 )
The outlier is the number that’s farther away from the others, in this case it’s 9. The mean is the average of all the data points so it is 77/20 or 3.85. Finally, the range is the highest number minus the lowest number, so the range is 8.

Answer:
k = 2/15
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve the given equation for k:
k = s/p . . . . . . divide the given equation by p on both sides
Using the first values from the table (15 pounds, 2 scoops), we have ...
k = 2/15
The value of k is 2/15.
