The x-intercept is a point on the x-axis.
y=0 at every point on the x-axis.
-2x + 1/2(0) = 18
-2x = 18
Divide each side by -2 : x = -9
Question:
The square of a number decreased by 3 times the number is 28 find all possible values for the number
Answer:
The possible values of number are 7 and -4
Solution:
Given that the square of a number decreased by 3 times the number is 28
To find: all possible values of number
Let "a" be the unknown number
From given information,
square of a number decreased by 3 times the number = 28
Let us solve the above quadratic equation
Using the above formula,
Thus the possible values of number are 7 and -4
2(5x + 2)^2 = 48
divide both sides by 2
(5x + 2)^2 = 24
square root both sides to clear the power of two.
5x + 2 = + - sqrt24
subtract 2 from both sides
5x = -2 + - sqrt 24
divide both sides by 5
x = (-2 +-sqrt24)/5 or decimal answers .58 and -1.38
<span>6x^2 - 7x + 2 = 0
(3x-2)(2x-1) = 0
</span>3x-2 = 0
x = 2/3
2x-1=0
x=1/2
answer: x=1/2 and x =2/3
Step 1
find the volume of the square box
volume=area of the base*height
area of the base=10²-----> 100 units²
height=4 units
volume square box=100*4----> 400 units³
step 2
volume rectangular box=2*volume square box
volume rectangular box=2*400------> 800 units³
volume rectangular box=L*W*H
H=5 units
W=10 units
Volume=800 units³
800=L*10*5------> solve for L
L=800/(10*5)------> L=16 units
the answer is
the length of the rectangular box is 16 units
