Answer:
It's like solving a quadratic, but in reverse, and in this case you'll arrive at x2+x−12=0
Explanation:
We're going to go "backwards" with this problem - normally we're asked to take a quadratic equation and find the roots. So we'll do what we normally do, but in reverse:
Let's start with the roots:
x=3, x=−4
So let's move the constants over with the x terms to have equations equal to 0:
x−3=0, x+4=0
Now we can set up the equation, as:
(x−3)(x+4)=0
We can now distribute out the 2 quantities:
x2+x−12=0
2 , 6 , 17 , 47 , <u>108</u> , ...
t(n) = 2n^3 - 8.5n^2 + 15.5n - 7
Answer:
The area is 104
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 8x + 38
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope we set up y = mx + b and plug m (our slope) in and then plug in the point into x and y to find b (our y-intercept)
y = mx + b
y = 8x + b
6 = 8(-4) + b
6 = -32 + b
+32 +32
38 = b
So using our slope and our intercept we have our slope intercept
y = mx + b
y = 8x + 38
