8x^2-2x-1=0
8x^2-4x+2x-1=0
4x(2x-1)+1(2x-1)=0
(4x+1)(2x-1)=0
x=1/2 and -1/4
So the sum is 1/2-1/4=1/4
1/4
Answer: 0.82 laps per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Lin is running 21 laps in 25.6 minutes.
To find out her speed in laps per minute, divide the distance she has ran by the time it took her to run it.
= Distance / time
= 21 / 25.6
= 0.82 laps per minute
Answer:
Eight students won 6, 7, or 8 gold medals.
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that the third bin is labelled 6 - 8. Since this is on the horizontal, or x, axis, this means that the students in this "bin" have won 6 - 8 medals, which is the same as saying winning 6, 7, or 8 medals.
Because this "bin" goes to 8, that means that there are 8 students who earned this many medals.
Thus, the answer is D.
Hope this helps!
