3x^2 + 6x - 10 = 0
x = [-6 +/- sqrt(^2 - 3*3*-10)] / 2*3
= 1.08 and -3.08
Other x -intercept is (-3.08,0)
Inverse proportion is of the form:
y=k/x, in this case the variables are
z=k/x, and we are given the point (6,2) so we can solve for k
2=k/6
12=k, so our equation is:
z=12/x, so when x=13
z=12/13
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first image can you give us the choices for each one?
When you are told to estimate, you should be able to do the problem in your head.
8 7/12 is close to 8 1/2
4 7/8 is very nearly 5
4/10 is very nearly 1/2
8 1/2 - 5 - 1/2 First of all you can take the 1/2 away from 8 1/2
8 1/2 - 1/2 = 8
Now take away the 5
8 - 5 = 3
So the answer is very nearly
3 <<<<< answer.
Just for fun, I'll get the exact answer. Don't hand this one in. It is 3 37/120
You learn to estimate because you are trying to guess whether or not you've entered everything correctly into your calculator. When writing a test, this is a very handy skill to have developed.
