I've actually just learned this. We would set up the proportion as X/9=36/X so after we cross multiply we get x^2=324. Then we find the square root of both sides to simplify. And using my calculator the square root of x^2 is just x. And the square root of 324 is 18. So the final answer is x=18 or the geometric mean is 18.
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
D) reflect over the y axis and then reflect again over the y axis.
Explanation:
Logically, if we reflect a figure across the y-axis and then reflect across the y-axis again, we have undone what we originally did, and the figure is back in its original position.
Algebraically, reflecting across the y-axis maps every point (x, y) to (-x, y). Reflecting this point across the y-axis maps (-x, y) to (x, y); this is our original point.
9.55 as a mixed number would be 9 11/20.
9.55 = 9 55/100 = 9 11/20
Hope this helps !
Answer: lol wut
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, luckily it is apparent that (x-1) is a root because when x=1 the equation is equal to zero. So we can divide the equation by that factor to find the other roots.
(2x^3+9x^2+4x-15)/(x-1)
2x^2 r 11x^2+4x-15
11x r 15x-15
15 r 0
(x-1)(2x^2+11x+15)=0
(x-1)(2x^2+6x+5x+15)=0
(x-1)(2x(x+3)+5(x+3))=0
(x-1)(2x+5)(x+3)=0
So the roots are x= -3, -2.5, 1
