Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the axis of symmetry is exactly halfway between the x-intercepts. Find the average of -3 and 5 to obtain this x-value: It is:

-3 + 5

x - intercept = ------------ = x = 1

How to find the general solution to y"'+2y"-4y'-8y=0?

S_A_V [24]

$y'''+2y''-4y'-8y=0$

has characteristic equation

$r^3+2r^2-4r-8=r^2(r+2)-4(r+2)=(r^2-4)(r+2)=(r-2)(r+2)^2=0$

which has roots at $r=\pm2$ . The negative root has multiplicity 2. So the general solution is

$y=C_1e^{2x}+C_2e^{-2x}+C_3xe^{-2x}$

Answer:

B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

Store R sells apples at $1.20 per pound.

Store S sells 4 pounds of apples at $5.00.

Store T sells 3 pounds of apples at $3.48.

To find the answer, you have to find the unit price for both Store S and Store T.

For Store S: 4 pounds = $5. Divide the cost by the pounds. This will give us $1.25 per pound.

For Store T: 3 pounds = $3.48. Same thing as Store S, divide the cost by the number of pounds. This will give us 1.16 per pound.

Now, we know the unit prices for each store. It's time to answer the question.

A. Store R sells apples at the lowest rate.

This is incorrect because the store that sells the apples at the lowest rate is Store T.

B. Store T sells the apples at the lowest rate.

This answer is correct, but I'll also take a look at the other two

C. Store S charges a lower rate for apples than Store T.

Again, this is incorrect because Store T sells apples at the lowest rate.

D. Store T charges the same rate for apples as Store R.

Nope, Store T sells the apples at a lower rate than Store R.

This means your answer will be B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate.
