Given the function ƒ(x) = x 2 - 4x - 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
nordsb [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Zeros of the given function are x=5 and x=-1.

Step-by-step explanation:


f(x)=x^2-4x-5

f(x)=x^2+1x-5x-5

f(x)=x(x+1)-5(x+1)

f(x)=(x-5)(x+1)

To find zeros, we need to set f(x)=0

0=(x-5)(x+1)

0=(x-5) or 0=(x+1)

0=x-5 or 0=x+1

5=x or -1=x


Hence zeros of the given function are x=5 and x=-1.


We can plug some random numbers like x=0,1,2,... into given function to find few points then graph those points and join them by a curved line.

That will give the final graph as attached below:

for x=0,

f(x)=x^2-4x-5

f(0)=0^2-4(0)-5

f(0)=0-0-5

f(0)=-5

Hence first point is (0,-5)

Similarly we can find more points.

It’s supposed to answer in simplest formIf I die is rolled one time find the probability of
Usimov [2.4K]

A die can have 6 possible outcomes.

The probability of an event is calculated using the formula:

P=\frac{number\text{ }of\text{ }required\text{ }outcomes}{number\text{ }of\text{ }total\text{ }outcomes}

Therefore, the probability of rolling a 1 is gotten to be:

P=\frac{1}{6}

The probability is 1/6.

Find the value of the lettered angles in each of the following ( see image ).
Arisa [49]

Step-by-step explanation:

here's the solution :-

1.) =》f = 90°

( because angle made by diameter on circumference of the circle measures 90° )

2.) =》here,

g + f + 56° = 180°

( because the sum of all interior angles of the triangle measures 180° )

=》g + 90° + 56° = 180°

=》g + 146° = 180°

=》g = 180° - 146°

=》g = 34°

3.) h = 56°

( since, they form alternate interior pair which are equal )
