Step-by-step explanation:

Root of the function, where y = 0

f(x) = x² + 2x - 1

0 = x² + 2x - 1

x² + 2x - 1 = 0

x² + 2x = 1

x² + 2x + 1 = 1 + 1

(x + 1)² = 2

x + 1 = ±√2

x = -1 ± √2

Roots → x = -1 ± √2

Use the following data set to answer question 8:
stira [4]

Answer:

15.1 to nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 7 is the lowest number so the mean would increase if taken away.

New mean = (8 + 12 + 13 + 15 +  18 + 19+21) / 7

= 106 / 7

= 15.14

Adult tickets to a play cost $22 tickets for kids cost $15. Tickets for a group of 11 cost a total of $228. How many children an
Zina [86]

Answer:Number of children = 2 and number of adults = 9 attended the play

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let the  number  of children be represented as  x

and the number of adults in the group  be represented as  as y

such that the total number of the group that went to the play

= x+y=11--- equation 1

And the total cost paid for the play will be expressed as

15x+  22y= 228------ equation 2

Step 2-- Solving

x+y=11--- equation 1

15x+  22y= 228------ equation 2

B y elimination method, multiply equation 1 by 15 to give equation 3  and then subtract from equation 2

15x+  22y= 228------ equation 2

15x+15Y= 165----- equation 3

7y=63

y= 63/7= 9

y= adults = 9

therefore x = number of children will be

x+y=11

x+ 9=11

x= 11-9= 2

In the group that attended the play,  Number of children = 2 and number of adults = 9

Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

You solve the substitution method to solve a system of equality by expressing one variable in terms of the other using one equation, and then plugging this expression in the other(s).

In this case, the first equation gives us a way to express n in terms of m. So, we can replace every occurrence of n in the second equation with the given formula.

The result is

14m+2n=-8 \iff 14m+2(-7m-4)=-8 \iff 14m-14m-8=-8 \iff -8=-8

So, the second equation turned to be an equality, i.e. an equation where both sides are the same.

This implies that the system has infinitely many solutions, because every couple (n,m) such that n=-7m-4 is a solution to the system, because it satisfies both equations: the first is trivially satisfied, whereas the second is an identity, and as such is satisfied by any value of the variable.
