Justin lives 4 3/5 miles from his grandfather house. What fraction greater than 1 can I write

Identify the x-intercepts of the function below f(x)=x^2+12x+24

damaskus [11]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

Given, $f(x)=x^{2}+12 x+24$ -- eqn 1

x-intercepts of the function are the points where function touches the x-axis, which means they are zeroes of the function.

Now, let us find the zeroes using quadratic formula for f(x) = 0.

$X=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here, for (1) a = 1, b= 12 and c = 24

$X=\frac{-(12) \pm \sqrt{(12)^{2}-4 \times 1 \times 24}}{2 \times 1}$

$\begin{array}{l}{X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{144-96}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{48}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{16 \times 3}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm 4 \sqrt{3}}{2}} \\ {X=\frac{2(-6+2 \sqrt{3})}{2}, \frac{2(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}{2}} \\\\ {X=(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}\end{array}$

Hence the x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

Q: A cell phone company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data. The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte.

DiKsa [7]

The linear equation which can be used to determine a user's monthly

bill is c = 60 + 0.05 d ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

A cell phone company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data
The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte
d represents the number of additional megabytes used
c represents the total charges at the end of the month

We need to find which equation can be used to determine a user's monthly bill

The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where b is the constant amount and m is the rate of change

∵ The company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data

- That means it is a constant amount each month

∴ b = 60

∵ The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte

- That means it depends on the number of additional megabyte,

so it is not constant, it is the rate of change

∴ m = 0.05

∵ d represents the number of additional megabytes

∴ x = d

∵ c represents the total charges at the end of the month

∴ y = c

Substitute y by c, m by 0.05, x by d and b by 60 in the form of the linear equation above

∴ c = 0.05 d + 60

- We can rearrange the terms of the right hand side

∴ c = 60 + 0.05 d

The linear equation which can be used to determine a user's monthly

bill is c = 60 + 0.05 d

Suppose that farmers grew and unexpectedly large number of tomatoes this year .how would this increase in production affect the

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The price would go down as people would be more willing to buy cheaper potatoes and the producers would want to sell them for a lower price to get rid of them easy and fast.

Select the correct answer. Consider the following system of equations. Use this graph of the system to approximate its solution.

vesna_86 [32]

The approximate solution to the given system of equations, considering the graph, is given as follows:

D. $\left(-\frac{13}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right)$ .

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

On a graph, the solution of a system of equations is given by the intersection between the curves. In this graph, the intersection of the two curves happen close to x = -3.25, y = 2.5, hence the solution is approximated by:

D. $\left(-\frac{13}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right)$
