The x-intercept will be the value of x when y=0. The solutions to (x+1)(x+2)=0 are -1 and -2 since we can substitute them in to have one of the values in parentheses equal to zero, so our x-intercepts are (-1, 0) and (-2, 0). The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0, or (0+1)(0+2)=2. Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 2).
Answer: 1.25 square feet
This converts to the improper fraction 5/4
===========================================================
Explanation:
The area of the triangle on the left is base*height/2 = 0.5*2/2 = 0.5 square feet. Note that 1/2 = 0.5
The area of the triangle on the right side is base*height/2 = 0.2*3/2 = 0.75 square feet. This converts to the fraction 3/4
Add up the two results: 0.5+0.75 = 1.25 square feet
-----------
If you need the answer as an improper fraction, then,
1.25 = 1 + 0.25
1.25 = 1 + 1/4
1.25 = 4/4 + 1/4
1.25 = (4+1)/4
1.25 = 5/4

Answer:
He has 11 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets study the information in the problem to solve it
- The value of dimes and quarters is $6.35
- There are dimes and quarters
- The dime = 10 cents
- The quarter = 25 cents
* We must change the money from dollars to cents
∵ $1 = 100 cents
∴ $6.35 = 6.35 × 100 = 635 cents
- The number of dimes = 3 + 3 × number of quarters
* Let number of dimes is D and number of quarter is Q
∴ D = 3 + 3Q
∴ 10D + 25Q = 635
* Substitute the value of D from first equation in the second equation
∴ 10(3 + 3Q) + 25Q = 635 ⇒ open the bracket
∴ 10(3) + 10(3Q) + 25Q = 635
∴ 30 + 30Q + 25Q = 635 ⇒ collect like terms
∴ 30 + 55Q = 635 ⇒ subtract 30 from both sides
∴ 55Q = 605 ⇒ divide both sides by 55
∴ Q = 11
* He has 11 quarters
