Answer: x = (sqrt(7) + 2)/3 and
x = ( – sqrt(7) + 2)/3

Explanation:

3x^2 - 4x - 1 = 0

Divide both sides by 3:

3x^2/3 - 4/3x - 1/3 = 0/3
x^2 - 4/3x - 1/3 = 0
x^2 - 4/3x = 1/3
x^2 - 4/3x + (2/3)^2 = 1/3 + (2/3)^2
(x - 2/3)^2 = 1/3 + 4/9
(x - 2/3)^2 = 7/9

Sqrt both sides:

x - 2/3 = sqrt (7/9)
x - 2/3 = |sqrt(7)/3|

Set x -2/3 = sqrt(7)/3

=> x = (sqrt(7) + 2)/3

Set x - 2/3 = - sqrt(7)/3

=> x = ( - sqrt(7) + 2)/3

use the slope formula which is y2-21/x2-x1

these are what i chose my numbers to be

-4=x1

-1= y1

-2= x2

-5= y2

The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle described is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h]

<h3>How to determine the range of speed associate to desired gas mileages</h3>

In this question we have a <em>quadratic</em> function of the <em>gas</em> mileage (g), in miles per gallon, in terms of the <em>vehicle</em> speed (v), in miles per hour. Based on the information given in the statement we must solve for v the following <em>quadratic</em> function:

g = 10 + 0.7 · v - 0.01 · v²      (1)

An effective approach consists in using a <em>graphing</em> tool, in which a <em>horizontal</em> line (g = 20) is applied on the <em>maximum desired</em> mileage such that we can determine the <em>speed</em> intervals. The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h].
