Answer:
5/1 or 5
Step-by-step explanation: You find two points that the line goes on. So in this it would be 1,1 for the first one, the second one is 2,4. Then you go from the first point up or down to get to the same level at the second point. Then you go over to the left or right to meet the second point, in this graph you will go up 5 times to get to the same level. Then over 1 time to get to the point. Then you divide the rise over the run the rise is 5 and the run is 1, so you would do 5 divided by 1 and the answer of that is 5.
Hope this helps you in the future

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em>The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:
* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100
* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i
It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.
* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54
* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54
The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54
Find the roots
solve
we use hmm, completing the suare
2(x²-1.5x)=4
divide both sides by 2
x²-1.5x=2
take 1/2 of linear coeiftn and square it
-1.5/2=-0.75, (-0.75)²=0.5625
add that to both sides
x²-1.5x+0.5625=2+0.5625
factor perfect squaer trinomial
(x-0.75)²=2.5625
square root both sides, remember to take positive and negative square roots
x-0.75=+/-√2.5625
add 0.75 to both sides
x=0.75+/-√2.5625
the roots are x=0.75+√2.5625 and x=0.75-√2.5625
1/a and 1/b
1/(0.75+√2.5625) and 1/(0.75-√2.5625)
if the roots of a quadratic equation are r1 and r2 then it factors to
(x-r1)(x-r2)
so then we can factor our equation to be
if we were to try and expand it, we would get
x²+0.75x-0.5
that's the simpliest equation with roots 1/a and 1/b where a and b are he roots of 2x²-3x=4
x²+0.75x-0.5 is answer
