Assuming the exponent is supposed to be "^2" your equation will read:
4x² + 8x - 5
It must set equal to y to be a valid function and the y must be set equal to zero to find x-intercepts.
4x² + 8x - 5 = 0
4x² - 2x + 10x - 5 = 0
2x(2x - 1) + 5(2x - 1) = 0
(2x + 5)(2x - 1) = 0
Set each binomial equal to zero.
2x + 5 = 0
2x = 0 - 5
2x = - 5
Divide both sides by 2
x = - 5/2
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 0 + 1
2x = 1
x = 1/2
Your x-intercepts are x = - 5/2, 1/2 or (- 5/2, 0) and (1/2, 0)
There is no exact rule for lines of best fit. However, in general, there should be roughly the same amount above as below. So, if we are following this rule, there should be about 4 below as well.
Answer:
2 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2) If two polygons are similar, the ratio of their areas is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
side ratio: 1/4------- area ratio: 1²/4² = 1/16 = 1:16 ratio
3)If two polygons are similar, then the ratio of their perimeters is equal to the ratios of their corresponding side lengths.
The ratio of the perimeters is the same as the scale factor.
scale 1:4
Let's set up an equation.
so we know the answer is -13.
1/3 of a number (our variable) can be written as 1/3n.
8 less than that would be subtracting 1/3n by 8
so we have -13 = 1/3n - 8.
To solve:
Add 8 to both sides: -5 = 1/3n
Multiply both sides by 3 (to cancel fraction): -15 = n
You can check by plugging -15 into the equation we made.
Answer:
<em>x = 437.3 ft</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Right Triangles</u>
In right triangles, where one of its internal angles measures 90°, the trigonometric ratios are satisfied.
We have completed the figure below with the missing internal angle A that measures A = 90° - 29° = 61° because the lines marked with an arrow are parallel.
Given the internal angle A, we can relate the unknown side of length x with the known side length of 500 ft, the hypotenuse of the triangle. We use the sine ratio:
Solving for x:
Calculating:
x = 437.3 ft
