Answer:Although the Quadratic Formula always works as a strategy to solve quadratic equations, for many problems it is not the most efficient method. Sometimes it is faster to factor or complete the square or even just "out-think" the problem. For each equation below, choose the method you think is most efficient to solve the equation and explain your reason. Note that you do not actually need to solve the equation. a. x2+7x−8=0x
2
+7x−8=0, b. (x+2)2=49(x+2)
2
=49, c. 5x2−x−7=05x
2
−x−7=0, d. x2+4x=−1x
2
+4x=−1.
L(t)=9-0.5t
t=time in hours,
L(t)=length of candle at time t
(A) substitute t=1,2,3,4,5,6 respectively to get
(1,8.5)
(2,8)
(3,7.5)
(4,7)
(5,6.5)
(6,6)
(B) it is a function because none of the x-values duplicate, (nor the y-values).
(C) If the rate changes to 0.45 "/hr, the relation is still linear.
All linear function with finite slope are functions.
Answer:
B 244
Step-by-step explanation:
6^3 +7*4
PEMDAS says exponents first
216 + 7*4
Then multiply and divide
216 +28
Now we add and subtract
244
