Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

$f(x) = x^2 + x - 9$

Using a graph tool

see the attached figure

The function represent a vertical parabola that open up

the vertex is a minimum-------> is the point (-0.5, -9.3)

The x-intercepts are the points when the y coordinate is equal to zero

The x-intercepts are the points (-3.5, 0) and (2.5, 0)

the function cross the negative x-axis at point

therefore, the answer is

(-4, 0) and (-3, 0)

Select the assumption necessary to start an indirect proof of the statement. If 3a+7 < 28, then a<7.

pashok25 [27]

When applying indirect proofs, we assume the negation of the conclusion is true, and show that this assumption would lead to nonsense, or contradiction.

In our case we assume a is not smaller than 7, that is we assume a≥7.

a≥7 then, multiplying both sides by 3:
3a≥21, then, adding both sides 7:

3a+7≥28,

which is a contradiction because 3a+7 is smaller than 28.

So our assumption is wrong, which means the opposite of it is correct.

Answer: assume a≥7

1 foot = 12 inches
12 1/2 or 12.5 inches
18 and 3/4 or 18.75 X 12= 225
The ratio is 12.5:225 or to simplify 1:18.

A new bank customer with $

Ann [662]

Answer:

$3100

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Principal = $2500

rate = 1.2%

time = 20 years

Step two:

The simple interest is expressed as

SI= PRT/100

substitute

SI= 2500*1.2*20/100

SI= $600

The account balance after 20 years is

= principal + Simple interest

= 2500+600

= $3100
