Answer:
The numbers are 24, 16 and 48
Step-by-step explanation:
For this equation you need to use all the information you have to add in 3 variables, use the information you have to connect them, so you only use one number. You’ll have the second number (x), the first number (x+8) and the third number (3x) now we use all of that to make an equation.
88=x+(x+8)+3x
Now you simplify the equation,
88=5x+8
Now get the x and it’s coefficient alone on one side
80=5x
Now divide both sides so the x is alone
x=16
Since the second number was x you know the second number
the first number is x+8 since x is 16 the first number is 24
The third number is 3 * x so the third number is 48.
So the numbers are 24, 16 and 48
Each term is 0.19 more than its predecessor. You have
So, we can assume that the next terms will be
Each runners time would be an average of 18.1
72.4/4=18.1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2^-3=1/2^3
3^-2=1/3^2
(2^-3)(3^-2)=1/72
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)
