What is 0.3636363636 to the nearest thousandth?

Bad White [126]

Answer: 0.364

The reason that it would be 0.364 is because the thousandths place is the third decimal place, which would leave you with a 3 but since there is a 6 after the 3, the 3 would be rounded up to a 4.

Find the roots of f(x)=x^2+10x−96

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

x = -16 or x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the roots of a polynomial function, set the polynomial equal to zero and solve for x.

x² + 10x - 96 = 0

We need to factor the left side. The left side is a quadratic polynomial whose first coefficient is 1. We need two numbers whose product is -96 and whose sum is 10. The numbers are 16 and -6.

(x + 16)(x - 6) = 0

If a product of two factors equals zero, then one factor or the other or both must equal zero.

x + 16 = 0 or x - 6 = 0

x = -16 or x = 6

3q - 16q = 7 + 2(-89 – 3)

levacccp [35]

Answer:

q = 177/13

Step-by-step explanation:

3q - 16q = 7 + 2(-89 – 3)

-13q = 7 + 2(-92)

-13q = 7 - 184

-13q = -177

q = (-177)/(-13)

q = 177/13

Solve the equation for x:

never [62]

3x - 17 = 9x + 7

Rearrange on same sides
-17 - 7 = 9x - 3x
-24 = 6x

Divide by 6 on either sides to isolate 6
$-\frac{24}{6} = \frac{6x}{6}$
6 and 6 cancels out
-4 = x

Answer is:
B. x = -4
