480. Since the ones place is a five, you round up, so 475 becomes 480.
Given:
The quadratic equation is
To find:
The x-intercepts of the given equation.
Solution:
We have,
Splitting the middle term, we get
For x-intercepts, y=0.
Using zero product property, we get
So, the x-intercepts are (0.5,0) and (2,0).
Therefore, the correct option is a.
As you may already be familiar, these functions f(x) and g(x) are piecewise. They consist of multiple functions with different domains.
1. For #1, the given input is f(0). Since 0≤1, you should use the first equation to solve. f(0)=3(0)-1 ➞ f(0)=-1
2. Continue to evaluate the given input for the domains given. 1≤1, therefore f(1)=3(1)-1➞f(1)=2
3. 5>1, therefore f(5)=1-2(5)➞f(5)=-9
4. -4≤1; f(-4)=3(-4)-1➞f(-4)=-13
5. -3<0<1; g(0)=2
6. -3≤-3; g(-3)=3(-3)-1➞g(-3)=-10
7. 1≥1; g(1)=-3(1)➞g(1)=-3
8. 3≥1; g(3)=-3(3)➞g(3)=-9
9. -5≤-3; g(-5)=3(-5)-1➞g(-5)=-16
Hope this helps! Good luck!
