<u>Answer:</u>
f(x) = (2x + 1)(2x − 1)
Explanation:
As we can see from the above function f(x) = 4
− 1, we need to find x-intercept, i.e., the value of x where this function's value is zero.
So let us Equate the function with zero
4
- 1 = 0 => 4
= 1 =>
= 1/4 => x = 
Hence we get 2 values of x, i.e., +1/2, and -1/2.
So now we need to check out the functions which are zero at this values of x, so let us substitute values of x in each and every option and see the values of functions.
Option A - f(x) = (4x + 1)(4x − 1) = 3, -3
Option B - f(x) = (2x + 1)(2x − 1) = 0
Option C - f(x) = 4(x2 + 1) = 5
Option D - f(x) = 2(x2 − 1) = -3/2
Hence answer is Option B
Can I see the rest of the problem of number 18 please
In this question, there are a few kinds of the coin with a different value. To answer this question, we need to know the total coin first. The total coin count should be: 10 +20 + 15 +5= 50 coin
In this case, the coin is taken twice, that means the denominator should be 50*49. But in this question, the probablity value is 6/49, so you need to convert it into 50*49 by multiplying the numerator with 50. The value should be:
6/49 *50/50= 300/49*50
The number 300 is multiplication of 20 and 15, that mean the answer should be: 1 dimes and 1 nickles
