Answer:

x = -4/5 and -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

"Finding zeroes" means find the x-values that make f(x) = 0, so we have...

0 = 10x² + 9x + 2

Use quadratic equation to solve...

x = [-9 ± √(9² - 4(10)(2))]/[2(10)]

x = [-9 ± √(81 - 80)]/20

x = [-9 ± √1]/20

x = [-9 ± 1]/20

x = (-9 + 1)/20 and (-9 - 1)/20

x = -8/20 and -10/20

x = -4/5 and -1/2

A plant is 20 inches tall. If the plant grows 2h inches each week for the next 4 weeks, and h inches for each of the 2 weeks aft

FromTheMoon [43]

A) 20+10h

You know that you have 20 inches to start with, then it will grow 2h four times, or 8h total. Then it will grow h 2 times, or 2h. You add the 20, 8h, and 2h, to get 20+10h.

Hope this helps!

O DATA ANALYSIS AND STATISTICS Outcomes and event probability A number cube is rolled three times. An outcome is represented by

Simora [160]

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

For each of the three events, there are 8 possible outcomes, so the probability of each event is,

$P(event)=\frac{favorable\text{ }outcomes}{possible\text{ }outcomes}=\frac{favorable\text{ }outcomes}{8}$

• Event A:, there must be only odd numbers in the last two rolls, which are either ,EOO or OOO,. This event has 2 favorable outcomes, ,so its probability is 1/4,.

• Event B,: this is the complementary event to event A. Here the last two rolls must be even numbers - both or only one of the last two: ,OOE, EEO, EOE, OEE, EEE, OEO,. This event has 6 favorable outcomes, so ,its probability is 3/4,.

• Event C,: this event is when the first and last rolls are even numbers in the same event. This is either ,EOE or EEE,. Since this event has 2 favorable outcomes, ,its probability is 1/4,.
