This one is so easy that your brain refuses to accept it.
It's looking for a harder answer, but can't find it !
You're totally correct, as far you went. x² + 2x does = -1
Now add ' 1 ' to each side: x² + 2x + 1 = 0
Can you factor that quadratic ?
Can you mash it through the quadratic formula ?
Actually, it's the simplest possible perfect square.
x² + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)²
So the solutions of x² + 2x + 1 = 0 are both x = -1 .
Don't say anything.
I know it's embarrassing.
Algebra
The graph is C, or the graph down left.
This is because the other graphs lack the same vertex.
You start by subtracting: 16000-1200= 14800
Then you divide 14800 by how many feet the plane rises per minute
14800/945=16 minutes
The answer is 16 minutes
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hours that that he spent washing cars.
Let y represent the number of hours that that he spent landscaping.
In a week, he can work no more than 19 total hours. This means that
x + y ≤ 19- - - - - - - - - - - -1
Jacob is working two summer jobs, making $10 per hour washing cars and making $8 per hour landscaping. He must earn at least $170. This means that
10x + 8y ≥ 170 - - - - - - - - - -2
If Jacob worked 4 hours landscaping, it means that
x + 4 ≤ 19
x ≤ 19 - 4
x ≤ 15
Also,
10x + 8 × 4 ≥ 170
10x + 32 ≥ 170
10x ≥ 170 - 32
10x ≥ 138
10x ≥ 138/10
x ≥ 13.8
The minimum number of hours is 14
X = 4, You subtract the 5x to the other side then divide the 32 by 8 to get 4.
