Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of months be x
Alligator 1 weight = 4 + 2x
Alligator 2 weight = 8 + x
- 4 + 2x = 8 + x
- 2x - x = 8 - 4
- x = 4
The answer is 4 months
Answer:
150 cause subtract 150 from 270 you get 150
6/10 of an inch= 0.6
7 (times) 0.6 (equals) 4.2
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=2x^2+9x-5
When we are find how many times it intersects the x axis, we are finding the zero's. Set the equation equal to zero
0=2x^2+9x-5
Factor the equation
0 = (2x+1) (x-5)
2*1
1*-5 = -5
2*-5 +1*1 = -9
This checks for the first last and middle terms so we factored correctly
Then using the zero product property
2x+1 = 0 and x-5 =0
2x = -1 x=5
x = -1/2 and x=5
This function crosses the x axis 2 times
