Answer:

1/100(x+7)(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point: (-2 , 0.05) X intercepts: -7 and -3

Format: y = a( x + x-intercept )( x + x-intercept )

0.05 = a( -2 + 7 )( -2 + 3 )

0.05 = a( 5 )( 1 )

0.05 = 5a

0.05/5 x 100 = 5/500 = 1/100

a = 1/100

1/100(x+7)(x+3)

Answer:

7 ordered with Soda;

3 ordered with water

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$m \to$ With water

$n \to$ With Soda

So:

$m + n =10$ --- total

$5m + 6.75n = 62.25$ -- cost

Required

Find m and n

$m + n =10$

Make m the subject

$m = 10 - n$

Substitute $m = 10 - n$ in $5m + 6.75n = 62.25$

$5(10-n) +6.75n = 62.25$

$50-5n +6.75n = 62.25$

Collect like terms

$-5n +6.75n = 62.25 - 50$

$-5n +6.75n = 12.25$

$1.75n = 12.25$

Solve for n

$n = 12.25/1.75$

$n = 7$

$m = 10 - n$

$m = 10 - 7$

$m =3$

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 2x + 8?

zubka84 [21]

Using the quadratic equation we get:
$\frac{ - 2 + - \sqrt{4 - 32} }{2} = \frac{ - 2 + - \sqrt{ - 28} }{2}$

Factoring out 2 we get
$\frac{ - 2 + - 2\sqrt{ - 7} }{2} = - 1( + - ) \sqrt{ - 7}$
Factoring out the imaginary number:
$- 1 + \sqrt{7} i \: (and) \: - 1 - \sqrt{7} i$
So b.
