Answer:

x = -6, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

f(x)=x^2-4x-60

Let f(x) = 0:

0=x^2-4x-60

Factor the equation:

0=x^2-10x+6x-60\\0=x(x-10)+6(x-10)\\0=(x+6)(x-10)

The zero-product property tells us that when two terms are multiplied and they equal zero, one of the terms must be zero.

Therefore, either (x+6) or (x110) is equal to 0:

x+6 = 0 ⇒ x = -6

x-10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

Therefore, the zeros of f(x) are -6 and 10.

I hope this helps!

Need help with this!!
wariber [46]

Answer:

below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) slope = rise / run

2 coordinates are (-4, 0), (0, 2).

2 - 0 = 2

0 -- 4 = 4

2 / 4 = 1/2 so the slope is 0.5 or ½

2) it crosses the y axis at the average of the origin and 4.

4 + 0 = 4 / 2 = 2 so y intercept is 2.

3) in y= mx + b form

f(x) = ½x + 2, or, f(x) = 0.5x + 2

Please help: A box contains 5 yellow balls, 3 blue, and 1 red ball. Two balls are drawn at random. Find the probability that:
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

a) 0.2778

b) 0.3611

c) 0.1389

d) 0.0833

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a total of 5 + 3 + 1 = 9 balls

a) First ball being yellow: we have 5 yellow balls, so P1 = 5/9

Second ball being yellow after one yellow was drawn: we have 4 yellows and 8 balls, so P2 = 4/8 = 1/2

Both yellows: P = P1 * P2 = 5/18 = 0.2778

b) Both blues:

P1 = 3/9 = 1/3

P2 = 2/8 = 1/4

P = P1 * P2 = 1/12 = 0.0833

Both yellows or both blues: 5/18 + 1/12 = 0.2778 + 0.0833 = 0.3611

c) First yellow: P1 = 5/9

Second red: P2 = 1/8

Pa = P1 * P2 = 5/72

or

First red: P3 = 1/9

Second yellow: P4 = 5/8

Pb = P3 * P4 = 5/72

P = Pa + Pb = 10/72 = 5/36 = 0.1389

d) First blue: P1 = 3/9 = 1/3

Second red: P2 = 1/8

Pa = P1 * P2 = 1/24

or

First red: P3 = 1/9

Second blue: P4 = 3/8

Pb = P3 * P4 = 1/24

P = Pa + Pb = 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833
