Answer:

A= x=5 or x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-3x-10=0

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply together to give you -10 and add together to give you -3

-5*2 = -10

-5+2 = -3

(x-5) (x+2) =0

Using the zero product property

x-5 =0         x+2 =0

x-5+5=0+5    x+2-2=0-2

x=5   x=-2

x^2 - 3x -10 = 0

Find two numbers when added together = -3 and when multiplied = -10

-5 + 2 = -3

-5 * 2 = -10

Now write the factored form of the equation:(x-5) (x+2) = 0

Solve for each x so that the equation = 0:

5 -5 = 0

-2 + 2 = 0

So X = -2 or 5

The answer is A.

Please help fast<br> The graph shows the function f(x)
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is the distance between y values divided by the distance between x values. We know this as rise/run or slope for linear equations. For non-linear equations, we calculate the average over an interval.

This function has y-values of -1 at x=0 and 5 at x=2.

We add -1+5=6 and divide this by 2-0=2.

6/2=3.

The y-values on average change 3 units for every 1 unit of the x-values.
