x = 1, -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the roots of x:
2 + 3
x − 4 = 0 by solving for x
.
Jenny is incorrect in her calculation.
For every time that Jenny's brother washed dishes, Jenny washed dishes 4 times. This tells that the the times they washed dishes occur in the ratio 4 :1. If Jenny's brother washed dishes 8 times, Jenny has to have washed dishes
times. The way Jenny's is doing the calculation implies that his brother washed dishes
times. He calculation yields a wrong result.
The equation x=2t-1 represent the x-coordinate. To get the value of x, substitute t with -1.
That is: x = 2(-1) - 1
= -2-1
= -3
Likewise, the equation y=t∧-3 represent the y-coordinate. Substituting t with -1,
y = (-1)∧-3
= -1
The point that correspond to t=-1 is (-3,-1).
Answer: True.
The ancient Greeks could bisect an angle using only a compass and straightedge.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ancient Greek mathematician <em>Euclid</em> who is known as inventor of geometry.
The Greeks could not do arithmetic. They had only whole numbers. They do not have zero and negative numbers.
Thus, Euclid and the another Greeks had the problem of finding the position of an angle bisector.
This lead to the constructions using compass and straightedge. Therefore, the straightedge has no markings. It is definitely not a graduated-rule.
As a substitute for using arithmetic, Euclid and the Greeks learnt to solve the problems graphically by drawing shapes .
