<span>The first two cuts can intersect at only 1 pt regardless of where they are placed.
So 4 pieces there.
The last cut can only intersect each other cut a 1 pt, regardless of placement. As long as the intersection is different than the first intersection, then you will have 7 pieces.</span>
Answer:
x-intercepts: (2, 0) and (−5, 0)
y-intercept: (0, −10)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x^2 + 3x − 10
y-intercept when x = 0 so y = -10, so y-intercept : (0, -10))
x-intercept when y = 0 so
x^2 + 3x − 10 = 0
(x +5)(x - 2) = 0
x + 5 = 0; x = -5
x - 2 = 0; x = 2
So x-intercepts: (-5, 0) and (2,0)
Answer: #20, x = 3
#21, x = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
#20) x + 4 + x + 2+ x + 5 = x + 3 +x+3+x+1+x+1
3x + 11 = 4x + 8
<u>-3x -3x</u>
11= x + 8
<u> - 8 - 8</u>
3 = x
#21) 12x(5) = 6x + 9 + x + 10 + x + 7
60x =8x + 26
<u> -8x -8x</u>
52x = 26
divide both sides by 52
x = 1/2
The answer here is no solution
13/5 or 2 3/5 by the way nice profile picture
