Answer:
a. 90
b. 360
Step-by-step explanation:
The time taken by humming bird to flap its wings= 0.08 sec
by flying 7.2 seconds a typical giant hummingbird flap its wings times
= 90 times
Since, A ruby-throated hummingbird can flap its wings 4 times faster than a giant hummingbird, it will flap its wings in every 0.02 sec
so in 7.2 seconds it will flap times = 360 times
Let's solve this by using the quadratic formula:
Note that we only use the coefficients so a=12, b=-14, and c=-6.
Plug values in the quadratic equation:
And so by evaluating those values we obtain:
Now we have two answers which are our factors one where we add another where we subtract and so:
First factor:
Second Factor:
And so your factors are
meaning that those are your roots/x-intercepts.
