Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Our function is : 3x²-3x-1
- 3x²-3x+2=2
- 3x²-3x-1+3=2
- 3x²-3x-1= -1
- the number that gives us -1 is 1 (from the graph)
so x is 1
- 3x²-3x-1= x+1 ⇒3x²-4x-2 = 0
- Δ(the dicriminant)= (-4)²-4*3*(-2)= 16+24 =40
- two solution x and y
- x= (4-√40)/6 and y= (4+√40)/6
- x= -0.38 and y = 1.7
- so the estimations are -0.38 and 1.7
Set up a proportion
EA / EB = ED/ EC
16 / (5x + 2 + 16) = 12 / (12 + 24)
16/(5x + 18) = 12 / 36 Cross multiply
16 * 36 = (4x + 18)*12 Remove the brackets
576 = 48x + 216 Subtract 216 from both sides.
360 = 48x Divide by 48
360/48 = x
7.5 = x
30% of 50,400 = 30240.
Therefore the percentage loss is 30% over the course of 3 years.
Answer:
slope is the ratio of the vertical and horizontal changes between two points on a surface or a line. The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run.
Step-by-step explanation:
To know the horizontal change between two points you need to know the two points.
