Where does the graph of y=2x2-x-3 cross as the x-axis?

This can be determined by finding the x-intercept. In doing so, we let y=0 to find the value of x.

y= 2x^2 -x -3
[0 = 2x^2 -x-3]÷2
0 = x^2 -1/2 x - 3/2

Complete the squares:

1/16 + 3/2 = x^2 - 1/2x + 1/16
25/16 = (x -1/4)^2
sqrt (25/16) = x - 1/4
+/- 5/4 = x - 1/4

Thus,
x = 1/4 + 5/4 = 3/2
x = 1/4 - 5/4 = -1

Thus, the graph crosses at x = 3/2 and x = -1.

Explain how the Associative Property can be used to mentally find the volume of the prisms shown
Leona [35]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A prism is a solid object having two identical bases, hence the same cross section along the length. This is a rectangular prism its base is a rectangle. multiplying the three dimensions of a rectangular prism: length, width and height, gives us the volume of a prism:

V=L\times W\times H

Therefore, Associative Property can be used to mentally find the volume of the prisms shown by selecting the easier way of the multiplication. For instance, we can say that:

L=5cm \\ \\ W=18cm \\ \\ H=20cm

In whose case:

V=5\times 18\times 20

To operate this mentally is not an easy way, but<em> what if we rotate this shape? </em>so we say that:

L=18cm \\ \\ W=20cm \\ \\ H=5cm

Then, the volume can be found as:

V=18\times 20\times 5

There are two forms of finding the result. First, multiplying 18 by 20 and then the result by 5, but as in the previous case this is a tricky way to do mentally:

V=(18\times 20)\times 5

Hence, here we can use Associative Property multiplying 20 by 5 and then the result by 18:

V=18\times (20\times 5)

This last arrangement is easier because 20 x 5 is easy to remember given that the result is 100. Then, by multiplying this result by 18 then we get 1800.

Which of the following relations is a function?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

C. (-7, 2), (-1, 3), (4,7), (7,2)

The values of x are not repeating, so this is a function, because for every x has only one corresponding value of y.
