Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Look for the three dots on the x-axis: You find them at -1, 2 and 4.
At these x-values the function has zeros (roots or solutions).
Thus, the 3 correct answers are B (x = 2) and F (x = 4). -1 is also a solution, but is not listed.
Answer:
Answer: Sample Response: The height of the triangle will be twice the height of the rectangle. The area of a triangle is ½ bh and the area of a rectangle is bh. If the bases are the same, then the height of the triangle has to be double that of the rectangle in order to get the same area.

Answer:
Below in BOLD.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x^2 - 6x - 2 = 0
Quadratic formula for ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is
x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)]/ 2a
Here we have a = 5, b = -6 and c = -2
so x = [-(-6) ± √((-6)^2 - 4*5*-2)]/ 2*5
= [ 6 ± √(36 + 40)] / 10
= 0.6 ± √76 / 10
= 0.6 ± 0.8718
= 1.4718, -0.2718
= 1.5, -0.3 to one decimal place.
x^2 + 3x = 40
x^2 + 3x - 40 = 0
We can factor this one:
(x - 5)(x + 8) = 0
x - 5 = 0 giving x = 5 and
x + 8 = 0 giving x = -8.
Answer x = -8, 5.
