5 0

Answer:

179, 180, 181

Step-by-step explanation:

a +a +1 +a +2 =540

3a +3 =540

3a =540 - 3

3a=537

a=537 :3

a=179 (the first number

b=179 +1 =180 (the second number

c=179 +2 =181 (the third number

Solve the equation by the Quadratic Formula. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. Write your solutions from least to greate

Marat540 [252]

I hope the choices for the numerators of the solutions are given.

I am showing the complete work to find the solutions of this equation , it will help you to find an answer of your question based on this solution.

The standard form of a quadratic equation is :

ax² + bx + c = 0

And the quadratic formula is:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

So, first step is to compare the given equation with the above equation to get the value of a, b and c.

So, a = 10, b = -19 and c = 6.

Next step is to plug in these values in the above formula. Therefore,

So,

Hope this helps you!

To fill out a sign chart, you will need to use test numbers before and after each of the function's zeros and ___

Vikki [24]

Answer:

C. asymptotes

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, a sign chart is shown. To fill it out you need to find the function's zeros and asymptotes. The zeros are those x values that makes the function equal to zero, in the example, those are the x values that make the denominator equal to zero (x = -1 and x = 5). In a rational function, the asymptotes are those x values that make the numerator equal to zero (x = -9 in the example)

Function in the example:

$\frac{(-2x-2)(2x-10)}{-9x-81}$
