For what values of x will the function f(x) = 3x² + 13x - 10 equal zero?

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

x = - 5 , x = $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

the values of x that make f(x) zero are the zeros

to find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

3x² + 13x - 10 = 0

consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 3 × - 10 = - 30 and sum = + 13

the factors are + 15 and - 2

use these factors to split the x- term

3x² + 15x - 2x - 10 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3x(x + 5) - 2(x + 5) = 0 ← factor out (x + 5) from each term

(x + 5)(3x - 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 2 ⇒ x = $\frac{2}{3}$

The cost of using 19 HCF of water is $32.49

Given in the question:

The monthly cost (in dollars) of the water use (in dollars) is a linear function of the amount of water used (in hundreds of cubic feet, HCF)

The cost for using 17 HCF of water is using $32.13

and, the cost of using 35 HCF is $61.83.

To find the cost of using 19 HCF of water.

Now, According to the question:

The cost for using 17 HCF of water is $32.13

and, the cost of using 35 HCF is $61.83.

To find the slope:

(17, 32.13) and (35, 61.83)

Slope = (61.83 - 32.13)/ (35 - 17) = 1.65

We know that:

Formula of slope :

y = mx + b

32.13 = 1.65 x 17 + b

b = 1.14

The equation will be :

C(x) = 1.65x + 1.14

Now, To find the cost of using 19 HCF of water.

C(19) = 1.65 × 19 + 1.14

C(19) = $32.49

Hence, the cost of using 19 HCF of water is $32.49.

What is the twentieth term of the arithmetic sequence described by the<br> equation an= 3n - 10?

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The twentieth term is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that describes the arithmetic sequence describes it's "general term", which means that all the numbers in that sequence must follow that equation. For instance, if we want to find the first term of the sequence we must make a = 1 and we have:

a1 = 3*1 - 10

a1 = -7

Therefore to find the twentieth term we need to make n equal to 20. This is done below:

a20 = 3*20 - 10

a20 = 60 - 10

a20 = 50

The twentieth term is 50.

Alexxx [7]

Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below,

Murphy loves pistachio nuts. Every Saturday morning, she walks to the market and buys some. Last week, she bought two pounds and paid $7.96, and this week she bought only one-half pound and paid $1.99. What the unit rate for pistachio nuts?

Answer:

The unit rate for pistachio nuts is $3.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Price of 2 pounds of pistachio nuts = $7.96

We need to find the price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts.

To find the same we will use the unitary method,

Hence ,

Price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts = $\frac{\$7.96}{2} = \$3.98$

Also given:

Price of half pound of pistachio nuts = $1.99

We need to find the price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts.

To find the same we will use the unitary method,

Hence ,

Price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts = $\$1.99\times 2 = \$3.98$

Hence, The unit rate for pistachio nuts is $3.98
