The x intercepts give a clue to find the equation. We know that factored quadratic equations are written in the form (x+n)(x+n)=0, where n is a positive or negative number. This means that when you solve for x, you must handle each bracket individually, like this:
x+n=0
x=-n
This gives us the x intercept of (-n, 0)
Using this example, we notice that the coordinate of x on the x intercept is the opposite of the number in the parentheses. So, the factored form of an equation going through the x intercepts (-8,0) and (-1,0) is (x+8)(x+1). Now, we just expand the brackets to give us the full equation:
{x}^{2}  + 9x + 8

A gym has 2kg and 5kg weights. There are 10 disks in all. The total weight of 2kg and 5kg disks is equal to 29kg. Find the numbe
Simora [160]

Answer:

no of 5 kg disks is 3, and no of 2 kg disks is (10-3) i.e. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no of 2kg disks be a.

Let no of 5 kg disks be b.

2a+5b=29

a+b=10

Using substitution, we have

2(10-b) + 5b=29

20-2b+5b=29

20+3b=29

3b=9

b=3

So no of 5 kg disks is 3, and no of 2 kg disks is (10-3) i.e. 7
