I'm assuming you're referring to problem 6. You are asked to find the number of x intercepts or roots, which is another term for "zero". I prefer the term root or x intercept as "zero" seems misleading. Anyways, all we do is count the number of times the graph crosses the x axis. This happens 4 times as shown in the attached image below. I have marked these points in red. The graph can directly cross over the x axis, or it can touch the x axis and then bounce back. Either way, it is considered an x intercept.
<h3>Answer: there are 4 x intercepts (or 4 roots)</h3>
= 1455
generate a few terms of the sequence using 
= 3n + 2
= ( 3 × 1) + 2 = 5
= (3 × 2) + 2 = 8
= (3 × 3 ) + 2 = 11
= (3 × 4 ) + 2 = 14
= ( 3 × 5 ) + 2 = 17
the terms are 5, 8, 11, 14, 17
these are the terms of an arithmetic sequence
sum to n terms is calculated using 
= 
[ 2a + (n-1)d]
where a is the first term and d the common difference
d = 8 - 5 = 11 - 8 = 14 - 11 = 3 and = 5
= 
[( 2 × 5) + (29 × 3) ]
= 15( 10 + 87) = 15 × 97 = 1455
Answer:
the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
it makes the most sense
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
is the given line 3x - 4y = -17?
then,
- 4y = -3x -17
y=(3/4)x+17/4
it is parallel, so slope of our line is 3/4 or 0.75
y=0.75x+b
next, lets plug in the given point to get the y-int
2=0.75*(-3)+b
2=-2.25+b
b-2.25=2
b=4.25
the equation is y=0.75x+4.25
does this clear anything, or am I off topic? please tell me I will help you
Answer:
(a) b = (4/7)c
(b) Bill: 40 shingles/hour; Chip: 70 shingles/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b and c represent Bill's and Chip's rates in shingles per hour, respectively. Then we have ...
7b = 4c
c - b = 30 . . . . shingles per hour difference in rates
(a) Bill's rate in terms of Chip's rate can be found by dividing the first equation by 7
b = (4/7)c . . . . . Bill's rate is 4/7 of Chip's rate
__
(b) To find the rates, we can multiply the second equation by 7 and substitute using the first equation:
7c -7b = 210
7c -4c = 210
c = 210/3 = 70
b = (4/7)(70) = 40
Bill's rate is 40 shingles per hour; Chip's rate is 70 shingles per hour.
