Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it's X= 0.5

group like terms

3x - 5x = 6 - 2 - 5

simplify the equation

-2x = -1

divide through by the coefficient of X

x = 0.5

Identify the x-intercepts of the function below f(x)=x^2+12x+24

damaskus [11]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

Given, $f(x)=x^{2}+12 x+24$ -- eqn 1

x-intercepts of the function are the points where function touches the x-axis, which means they are zeroes of the function.

Now, let us find the zeroes using quadratic formula for f(x) = 0.

$X=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here, for (1) a = 1, b= 12 and c = 24

$X=\frac{-(12) \pm \sqrt{(12)^{2}-4 \times 1 \times 24}}{2 \times 1}$

$\begin{array}{l}{X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{144-96}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{48}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{16 \times 3}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm 4 \sqrt{3}}{2}} \\ {X=\frac{2(-6+2 \sqrt{3})}{2}, \frac{2(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}{2}} \\\\ {X=(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}\end{array}$

Hence the x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

You want to buy a pet rabbit that costs $49. You already have $18 and you plan to save $9 per week. If w represents the numbe

kap26 [50]

18 + 9x = 49

with the use of an equation you can easily find out if 6 weeks of saving up is enough to get the rabbit.

18 + 9(6) $\neq$ 49

9 x 6 = 54

54 + 18 = 72

you could have enough money in 4 weeks
