Answer: The graph has two zeros.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given graph is the graph of parabola open upward. In the graph of parabola, we will have two solutions since the highest degree of the function is 2.

y = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, c are real number and a ≠ 0.

You can see the height degree of the function is 2.

Therefore, there should be two zeros of the function.

According to the given graph of parabola has two zeros at x = -2 and x = 0.

The graph cross the x-axis at x = -2 and x = 0.

Hence, the graph has two zeros.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given curve crosses the x-axis in two places, (-2, 0) and (0, 0), which are the zeros. This parabolic curve opens up and has its vertex (minimum) at (-1, -1).

1. Delia purchased a new car for $23,350. This make and model straight line depreciates to zero after 13 years.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

a. y-intercept = 23350 and x-intercept = 13

b. $m = -\frac{23350}{13}$

c. $y = -\frac{23350}{13}x + 23350$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Years = 13$

$Total\ depreciation = \$23350$

Solving (a): The x and y intercepts

The y intercept is the initial depreciation value

i.e. when x = 0

This value is the value of the car when it was initially purchased.

Hence, the y-intercept = 23350

The x intercept is the year it takes to finish depreciating

i.e. when y = 0

From the question, we understand that it takes 13 years for the car to totally get depreciated.

Hence, the x-intercept = 13

Solving (b): The slope

The slope (m) is the rate of depreciation per year

This is calculated by dividing the total depreciation by the duration.

So:

$m = \frac{23350}{13}$

Because it is depreciation, it means the slope represents a deduction.

So,

$m = -\frac{23350}{13}$

Solving (c): The straight line equation

The general format of an equation is:

$y = mx + b$

Where

$m = slope$

$b = y\ intercept$

In (a), we have that:

$y\ intercept = 23350$

In (b), we have that:

$Slope\ (m) = -\frac{23350}{13}$

Substitute these values in $y = mx + b$

$y = -\frac{23350}{13}x + 23350$

<em>Hence, the depreciation equation is: </em> $y = -\frac{23350}{13}x + 23350$ <em></em>

To evaluate 43/2 find A) the square of 4 and then take the cube root. B) the cube of 4 and then take the square root. C) the squ

tatiyna

Answer:

B) the cube of 4 and then take the square root

Step-by-step explanation:

43/2 = 21.5

___

The answer choices suggest you want ...

4^(3/2) . . . . . . . appropriate math symbols are very helpful

This can be evaluated several ways:

$4^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt{4^3}=(\sqrt{4})^3=10^{\frac{3}{2}\log{4}}\\\\=8$

_____

Since the 3 is in the numerator of the fraction, it represents a cube, not a cube root. Any of the answer choices suggesting cube root is involved are incorrect. (Eliminating those leaves only the correct answer choice.)
