Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 2/3 x to both sides: 
Subtract 8 from both sides: 
Multiply both sides by 3: 
Divide both sides by 11: 
Therefore, point of intersection between both lines is at point (-3, -1)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Count change of signs to tell positive roots
then replace x with -x and evaluate, then count change in sign for negative roots
initially
+, -, -, +, +, -
3 changes
3 or 1 positive roots
replacing x with -x
-,-,+,+,-,-
2 changes
2 or 0 negative roots
B is answer
Area of square/rectangle = length times width
Answer:
<h2>14mph</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the gas mileage for a certain vehicle modeled by the equation m=−0.05x²+3.5x−49 where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. In order to determine the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg, we will substitute the value of m = 9 into the modeled equation and calculate x as shown;
m = −0.05x²+3.5x−49
when m= 9
9 = −0.05x²+3.5x−49
−0.05x²+3.5x−49 = 9
0.05x²-3.5x+49 = -9
Multiplying through by 100
5x²+350x−4900 = 900
Dividing through by 5;
x²+70x−980 = 180
x²+70x−980 - 180 = 0
x²+70x−1160 = 0
Using the general formula to get x;
a = 1, b = 70, c = -1160
x = -70±√70²-4(1)(-1160)/2
x = -70±√4900+4640)/2
x = -70±(√4900+4640)/2
x = -70±√9540/2
x = -70±97.7/2
x = -70+97.7/2
x = 27.7/2
x = 13.85mph
x ≈ 14 mph
Hence, the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg to the nearest mph is 14mph
