Gradient is the difference between the y-axis and the x-axis
Gradient = y2-y1/x2-x1
Choose any two point making a triangle
Line B (0,8) (4,0)
This makes a triangle please go look at the graph once again! The the triangle should not have half squares but full!
Line A (5,14)(2,2)
Now plug in the variable
The difference between the Y and X
Line B 0-8/4-0
Line B gradient =-2
Line A 2-14/2-5
Line A gradient = +4

Finalized answer
Line B gradient = -2
Line A gradient = +4

The graphs of f(x) and g(x) are shown below:
rosijanka [135]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: C is the correct answer.

            C.)   x = −3.8, 3

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The function f(x) is given by:

           f(x)=x^2-x-12

and the function g(x) is given by:

            g(x)=-1.8x-0.6

Now, we are asked to find the solution of the equation:

        f(x)=g(x)

i.e. we have to find the value of x such that both the functions are equal i.e.

x^2-x-12=-1.8x-0.6\\\\i.e.\\\\x^2-x+1.8x-12+0.6=0\\\\i.e.\\\\x^2+0.8x-11.4=0\\\\i.e.\\\\10x^2+8x-114=0\\\\i.e.\\\\5x^2+4x-57=0

Now, on solving the equation using the quadratic formula i.e. the solution of the equation:

ax^2+bx+c=0

is given by:

x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Here we have:

a=5,\ b=4\ and\ c=-57

Hence, the solution is given by:

x=\dfrac{-4\pm \sqrt{4^2-4\times 5\times (-57)}}{2\times 5}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{-4\pm \sqrt{16+1140}}{10}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=-3.8\ and\ x=3

Mustafa’s horse ate 6,400 pounds of hay last year. How could Mustafa determine the number of tons of hay his horse ate last year
Alona [7]

Answer:

by dividing 6,400 by 2,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 2000 pounds  equals 1 ton

To convert 6400 pounds to tons, we need to

6400 pounds * 1 ton/2000 pounds

Divide 6400 by 2000

PLEASE HELP AND TELL ME HOW YOU DID IT I HAVE TO SHOW work !! Jeans are on sale for 40% off the jeans Justin wants to buy them m
Harman [31]
Okay, if the jeans were originally $80, take 40% off of that (40% of 80 is 32) so you’d get 48. Now take 48 and multiply by 1.07 (to get 107% of the $48, to find a percentage you can move the decimal place left 2 digits and multiply), so Justin would pay $51.36 in total.

5x^2-2x=2<br>help plsmmm​
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Presumably you're solving for x here?  Without further information we'll assume that.

With that in mind, x is approximately equal to 0.86 and -0.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by putting it in the usual ax² + bx + c format.

5x^2- 2x = 2\\5x^2 - 2x - 2 = 0\\

let's solve it.  First we'll multiply both sides by five, making the first term a perfect square:

25x^2 - 10x - 10 = 0\\

Now we'll add 11 to both sides:

25x^2 - 10x + 1 = 11\\

Which makes the left side a perfect square:

(5x - 1)^2 = 11

And now we can solve for x:

(5x - 1)^2 = 11\\\\5x - 1 =  \sqrt{11} \\\\5x = 1 + \sqrt{11}\\\\x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{11}}{5}

Note that there's no apparent way of drawing the ± symbol when editing equations, so take that + sign as actually being ±.

That gives us two answers:

x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{11}}{5}\\\\x \approx \frac{1 + 3.32}5\\\\x \approx \frac{4.32}5\\\\x \approx 0.86             x = \frac{1 - \sqrt{11}}{5}\\\\x \approx \frac{1 - 3.32}5\\\\x \approx \frac{-2.32}5\\\\x \approx -0.46
