Answer:
x= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-2=13 - Add 2 to both sides which cancels out the -2 and turns 13 into 15
5x=15 - Divide 5 on both sides which cancels the 5 and leaves x=3
x=3 - Is the final answer or the solution to the problem

Answer: The correct option is (B)
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the co-ordinates of the end-points of a line segment AB are A(2, 9) and B(5, 8). After being dilated about the origin (0, 0), the co-ordinates of the end-points of image A'B' are and
We are to find the scale factor of the dilation.
The scale factor of the dilation will be
The lengths of the lines AB and A'B' are calculated using distance formula as follows:
Therefore, the required scale factor of dilation is
Thus, the scale factor of the dilation is
Option (B) is CORRECT.
Answer:
15 inches by 16 inches
OR
1 foot 3 inches by 1 foot four inches
Approximate the solution to the equation f(x)=g(x) using three iterations of successive approximation. Use this graph as a starting point. (It’s not x= -7/8)
In the graphing tool, choose the custom option in the Relationship menu to graph the functions f(x) = x^3 + 3 and g(x) = x^2 + 2.
Adjust the zoom level of the graph so you can see the point where the two graphed functions intersect. Then, left-click on the point where the functions intersect. The values of the point you click on, rounded to the nearest hundredth, will appear for about 2 seconds.
Note: If you’re not using a mouse (or a mouse with left-click ability), perform the equivalent zoom-in action on your device to see the intersection point values rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Then, approximate (to the nearest hundredth) the solution of f(x) = g(x) from part A of this question.

Answer:
(a) -3/4
(b) -0.75
(c) -0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a bit hard to tell what constitutes an "iteration" when using the bisection method to approximate a polynomial root. For the purpose here, we'll say one iteration consists of ...
Thus, the result of the iteration consists of a bracketing interval and the choice of one of the interval's ends as the solution approximation.

(a) We observe that the graphs intersect in the interval (-1, 0). For the first iteration, we evaluate f(x)-g(x) at x=-1/2. This tells us the solution is in the interval (-1, -1/2). The x-value closest to the root is x=-1/2.
For the second iteration, we evaluate the function f(x)-g(x) at x=-3/4. This tells us the solution is in the interval (-1, -3/4). The x-value closest to the root is x=-3/4.
For the third iteration, we evaluate the function f(x)-g(x) at x=-7/8. This tells us the solution is in the interval (-7/8, -3/4). The x-value closest to the root is x=-3/4.
__
(b) The graph tells us the solution is approximately 0.7549. Rounded to 2 decimal places, the solution is approximately 0.75.
__
(c) The above solution found after 3 iterations rounded to 2 decimal places is exactly 0.75.

Comment on bisection iteration
Since you cut the interval containing the root in half with each iteration, you gain approximately one decimal place for each 3 iterations. When the function value is very nearly zero at one of the interval endpoints, it can take many more iterations to achieve a better result.
Here, it takes 4 more iterations before an x-value becomes closer to the solution (x≈-97/128). And it takes one more iteration to move the end of the interval away from -3/4. After these 5 more iterations (8 total), the solution is known to lie in the interval (-97/128, -193/256). The corresponding solution approximation is -193/256. It is still only correct to 2 decimal places.
