A is correct the y intercept is (0,5)
Turn them all into decimals so you can clearly see the difference between them
8 1/9 = 8.11
8.117
8.28
163/20 = 8.15
8 1/9, 8.117, 163/20, 8.28 is your answer
With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200.
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120.
So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!
Factor the equation. Remember the value should add to the b value and multiply to the c value.
x^2-x-12= 0
(x-4)(x+3)=0
Use the zero product property to find roots
x-4=0
x=4
x+3=0
x=-3
Final answer: x=-3, x=4
umm I don't know hehe oops
