The root of an equation f(x) is the x value(s) for which f(x) = 0.
So, if you have f(x) = 6x + 3, to find its root(s), you do 0 = 6x + 3, and then
0 - 3 = 6x + 3 - 3
-3 = 6x + 0
-3 = 6x
-3/6 = 6x/6
-1/2 = x
x = -1/2 is the one and only root (Linear functions will always have 0 or 1 root. They will have zero roots if they are horizontal lines of the form y = c, where c is any constant, and they will have one root if they are of the form y = mx + b, where m is not 0.)
Answer:
(1.5,2.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x^2 - 6x + 7
Take the first derivative and set it equal to 0 (the slope is 0 at the vertex)
f'(x) = 4x -6
0 = 4x - 6
4x = 6
x = 3/2 or 1.5
If x = (3/2), then y = 2(3/2)^2 - 6(3/2) + 7
y = 2(9/4) - 18/2 + 7
y = (9/2) - 2
y = 2.5

Answer:
4.806 g ≤ n ≤ 5.194 where n is the mass of a nickle.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem tells us the weight can vary by .194 g, this means it can be up to .194 lighter and 194 heavier. Well what value is .194 lighter and .194 heavier? 4.806 and 5.194 respectively. So that means a nickle can be anywhere in that range, which tells us the inequality.
