Answer:
0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
y^2-y^1 = 7-5 = 2
x^2-x^1 = 9-4 = 5
2/5 = 0.4
Transpose all the terms in the left hand side of the equation. The equation then becomes,
8x² - 22x - 6 =0
Divide both sides of the equation by 2,
4x² - 11x - 3 = 0
In this equation, A = 4, B = -11, and C = -3
With the variables identified, the quadratic equation can be used to identify the roots,
x = (-B +/- √B² - 4AC) / 2A
The values of x in the equation are,
<em> x = 3 and x = -1/4
</em><em />Thus, the one of the answer to this item is the third choice, x = 3. <em>
