Answer:
Students should be able to find the x-intercepts of a quadratic function using both factoring and completing the square. All that should be given to students is the standard form of a quadratic equation in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c.
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x-10=10 x= -4
Work:
-5x-10=10
+10 +10
______________
-5x=20
_______
-5 -5
x=-4
Remark
The thing you must not do is write 7.182 as your answer. That is the exact answer found using a calculator.
What to do.
What you should do is multiply two rounded numbers together.
7.6 rounded is 8 roughly
0.945 is almost 1.
Your answer is 8*1 = 8 roughly. This skill is very handy when you are writing a test and you want to see if you've done the question correctly. It is easy to misplace a decimal or put in incorrect digits and this is a quick check on things like that.
Alright, so let's make both 7/8 and 3/10 into fractions with the same denominator.
The lowest common denominator for both of these is 80.
So, we multiply the top and bottom of 7/8 by 10, and the top and bottom of 3/10 by 8 to get fractions we can compare.
So, we have 70/80 of a candy bar, and we want to make servings of 24/80 each.
How many times can 24 go into 70? 2 times, with a remainder of 22.
So, Tony can make 2 servings.
Answer:
Slope = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given points are :
(-1,30) and (4, 10)
We need to find the slope of the line that passes through these points.
We know that, the formula for the slope of line is given by :
![m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=m%3D%5Cdfrac%7By_2-y_1%7D%7Bx_2-x_1%7D)
We have, x₁ = -1, y₁ = 30, x₂ = 4 and y₂ = 10
Put values in the above formula.
![m=\dfrac{10-30}{4-(-1)}\\\\=\dfrac{-20}{5}\\\\=-4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=m%3D%5Cdfrac%7B10-30%7D%7B4-%28-1%29%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B-20%7D%7B5%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D-4)
So, the slope of the line is -4.
