We are asked in this problem to find the real root of the polynomial f(x) = x3 + 0.5x2 + 4.5. in this case, to find the root of the equation, we equate the equation to zero.
<span>f(x) = x³ + 0.5x² + 4.5 = 0
2x3 + x^2 + 9 = 0
</span><span>x1=−1.83557
</span>x2=0.66779+1.41619∗i
x3=0.66779−1.41619∗i
answer is -1.84
I'm pretty sure the answer is D. because I don't think anyone would want to take their total meal cost and then multiply it by their tip to make it even larger. You would just add the tip to the meal cost.
3y=x-3
y=1/3x-1
Perpendicular slope: -3
y=-3x+b
Plug in the coordinates in the equation:
-9=-3(5)+b
-9=-15+b
4=b
Equation: y=-3x+4
Also, when finding the perpendicular slope you take the reciprocal of the original slope and make it negative if it is positive and make it positive if it’s negative.
