Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Factoring will reveal the solution. So we divide the equation by the greatest common factor of the terms and use that factor as the coefficient. In this case the greatest common factor is just x.
2x^2+5x
x(2x+5) so the equation will equal zero when either of those expressions is zero because zero times anything is zero. x=0 and x=-5/2
Answer:
9/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
they add five
9+5=14
12+5=17
15+5=20
18+5=23
<span>Inflection points are where the function changes concavity. Since concave up corresponds to a positive second derivative and concave down corresponds to a negative second derivative, then when the function changes from concave up to concave down (or vise versa) the second derivative must equal zero at that point. So the second derivative must equal zero to be an inflection point. But don't get excited yet. You have to make sure that the concavity actually changes at that point.</span>
