Answer:

y intercept  (0,8)

zero's ( -3.2 ,0) (.8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x2 - 7x + 8,

to find the y intercept, set x = 0

y = 0-0+8

the y intercept is 8

y = -3x2 - 7x + 8,

use the quadratic equation to find the zeros

-b ±sqrt(b^2 -4ac)

--------------------------

         2a

-(-7) ±sqrt((-7)^2 -4*(-3)*8)

---------------------------------

           2*(-3)

(7) ±sqrt((49 +96)

---------------------------------

           -6

(7) ±sqrt((145)

---------------------------------

           -6

(7+ sqrt(145))/-6  =-3.173599       round to 1 decimal place   -3.2

and

(7- sqrt(145))/ -6=.840266   round to 1 decimal place   .8

Answer:

a) y-int is at (0, 8)

b) zeros are at (0.8, 0) and (-3.2, 0); after having rounded to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y = -3x² - 7x + 8

we can find our y-intercept by setting x = 0

y = -3 (0)² - 7 (0) + 8

y = 8

so, our y intercept is at (8, 0)

To find our zeros, or x-intercepts, we need to set y = 0

0 = -3x² - 7x + 8

Let's use the quadratic formula

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4 (a  * c))) / 2a

where, in this case

a = -3

b = -7

c = 8

x = (7 ± √((-7)² - 4 (-3 * 8))) / (2 * -3)

x = (7 ± √(49 - -96) / -6

x = (7 ± √145) / -6

using the addition pathway

x = (7 + √145) / -6

x = 3.2

using the subtraction pathway

x = (7 - √145) / -6

x = -0.8


So, our x-intercepts, or zeros, will lie on the points

(0.8, 0) and (-3.2, 0)


Create a table of x and y values using the given equation, and plot and graph. Clearly label your y and x intercepts.

(x, y)

(-3, 2)

(-2, 10)

(-1, 12)

(0, 8)

(1, -2)

(2, -18)

(3, -40)

Dennis can walk 2.833 miles each hour . About how far can he walk in 3 hours and 15 minutes
Bezzdna [24]

well, let's split the hours in minutes, so since 1 hr is 60 minutes, so he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, well, 3 hrs is 3*60 = 180 minutes, then we add 15 minutes, that's 195 minutes.

if he can walk 2.833 miles in 60 minutes, how long will it be for 195 minutes?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} miles&minutes\\ \cline{1-2} 2.833&60\\ x&195 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{2.833}{x}=\cfrac{60}{195}\implies \cfrac{2.833}{x}=\cfrac{4}{13} \\\\\\ 36.829=4x\implies \cfrac{36.829}{4}=x\implies 9.20725 = x
