Find the zeros of the quadratic function f(x) = 1/2(x- 7)^2 – 8​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rasek [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 11 or 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (1/2)(x- 7)² – 8​

to find the zeros, we equate f(x) = 0

f(x) = 0

(1/2)(x- 7)² – 8​ = 0      (add 8 to both sides)

(1/2)(x- 7)² = 8     (multiply both sides by 2)

(x- 7)² = (8)(2)

(x- 7)² = 16

x-7 = ±√16

x-7 = ±4

hence,

x - 7 = 4

x = 4 + 7

x = 11

or

x - 7 = -4

x = -4 +7

x = 3

John ran 4 laps of the track in 5 minutes, 40 seconds
mihalych1998 [28]

Well, lets think about this. We need to ask our self how many seconds are in one minute. There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. We know he did 4 laps in 5 minutes and 40 seconds. You can change the minutes to seconds by multiplying 60 * 5 = 300 seconds. So 5 minutes = 300 seconds. Now just take the 40 seconds and add it to the 300 seconds, which will give you 340 seconds. So John ran 4 laps in 340 seconds. B wants to know how many seconds it took John per lap...We can find this by dividing 340 by 4 340/4 = 85.

A) 340 seconds

B) 85 sec/lap
