Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is y - 5 = 0.5x² + 6x - 3

We have to find the number of x - intercepts the graph of this equation will make.

For x-intercepts we will put y = 0

so 0 - 5 =0.5x² + 6x - 3

     0.5x² + 6x - 3 + 5 = 0

   0.5x² + 6x + 2 = 0

      x² + 12x + 4 = 0

We know if a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0

and b² - 4ac > 0 there will be two real roots.

In this equation b = 12, C = 4 and a = 1 (12)² - 4 × 4 = 144 - 16

                                                         = 128 > 0

Therefore, there will be two intercepts of x

Jacob runs 5 miles in 1 1/2 hours Robert runs 3 miles in 45 minutes who runs faster
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

hence Robert runs at a faster speed

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/2 hours = 3/2 hours = 1.5 hours

45 min = 45/60 = 3/4 = 0.75 hours

Jacob's speed = 5 miles ÷ 1.5 hours = 3.33 miles/hr

Robert's speed = 3 miles ÷ 0.75 hours = 4 miles/hr

hence Robert runs at a faster speed

The path of a race will be drawn on a coordinate grid like the one shown below. The starting point of the race will be at (−5.5,
Mazyrski [523]
A) the starting point is in quadrant Q because the x-value is negative, while the y-value is positive. The finishing point is in quadrant S because the x-value is positive, while the y-value is negative.
B) The points are connected by a straight line, so you don't have to wander off. By the way, the checkpoint is in Quadrant P.

Sidana [21]
We need to find the distance between (7, 5) and (10, 11) and double it, since they run it twice. We can do this as follows: 2√(11-5)² + (10-7)² = 2√36 + 9 = 2√45 = 6√5.
