<h3>How to find an approximate solution of a one-variable equation</h3>
The solution of the equation is between x = 4 and x = 5. Now we begin by evaluating each side of the expression (f(x) = x² - 5 · x + 4, g(x) = 2 / (x - 1)) at the average of x = 4 and x = 5.
x = (4 + 5) / 2
x = 4.5
f(4.5) = 4.5² - 5 · 4.5 + 1
f(4.5) = - 5 / 4
g(4.5) = 2 / (4.5 - 1)
g(4.5) = 4 / 7
The solution of the equation is between x = 4.5 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:
x = (4.5 + 5) / 2
x = 4.75
f(4.75) = 4.75² - 5 · 4.75 + 1
f(4.75) = - 3 / 16
g(4.75) = 2 / (4.75 - 1)
g(4.75) = 8 / 15
The solution of the equation is between x = 4.75 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:
x = (4.75 + 5) / 2
x = 4.875
f(4.875) = 4.875² - 5 · 4.875 + 1
f(4.875) = 25 / 64
g(4.875) = 2 / (4.875 - 1)
g(4.875) = 16 / 31

Answer:
6(x+2)(x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
the solution is in the picture
First, find the digit in the place you are rounding to. Look at the digit one place to the right. If the digit is less than 5, round down. If the digit is 5 or greater, round up.
For example: round 1.86 to the nearest tenth
Look at the tenth digit (8). The number to the right of it is 6. Since it’s above 5, round the 8 up to 9. So you would get 1.9.
If it was 1.84, since 4 is less than 5, you would not round the 8, and you would get 1.8
