The zeros is another name for solutions.
x^2 - 5x - 1 = 0
You must use the quadratic formula to find x.
In the formula, a = 1, b = -5 and c = -1.
Plug into formula and solve for x.
The values of x are the zeros of the function.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Required
The positive root of 
Equate to 0

So, we have our function to be:

Differentiate the above function:

Using Newton's method of approximation, we have:

Plot the graph of
to get
--- see attachment for graph
From the attached graph, the first value of x is at 2.2; so:

So, we have:



The process will be repeated until the digit in the 6th decimal place remains unchanged



Hence:
Answer:
So, after 6 months, they both have the same number of coins.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jack has 56 coins
Jill has 80 coins
Jack collect 12 coins per month
Jill collect 8 coins per month
Let after m months, they both have the same coin.
56 + 12 m = 80 + 8 m
12 m - 8 m = 80 - 56
4 m = 24
m = 6
So, after 6 months, they both have the same number of coins.
Answer:
Well this question is actually a piece of cake. Just pick your favorite number. Multiply it by 10. Then do whatever operation you want with the 2,300. For the exponent part of this. Lets say we do it this way y times z equals 2,300. Exponents are letters used in mathematical terms. So any letter can be used to represent any number.
Step-by-step explanation:
To write 8.57 as a fraction you have to write 8.57 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.
8.57 = 8.57/1 = 85.7/10 = 857/100
And finally we have:
8.57 as a fraction equals 857/100
