Open Question: help finding x-intercepts?

Open Question: help finding x-intercepts?

If your line has the equation y = 3x² + 6x - 7 then to find the x intercepts you set y = 0.

So 0 = 3x² + 6x - 7

Like you said (or implied), it won't factorize so we should use the quadratic formula to solve it.

x = [-6 +/- sqrt(6² - 4(3 x -7))] / 2(3)

x = [-6 +/- sqrt(120)] / 6

x = [-6 +/- 2sqrt(30)] / 6

x = [-3 +/- sqrt(30)] / 3

x = -1 +/- sqrt(30)/3

So those are your two answers.

x = -1 + sqrt(30)/3 or
x = -1 - sqrt(30)/3

find the marginal profit when the value of x is 3Answer Question

bill by bill Member since:March 30, 2008Total points:5,708 (Level 5)jsut take the first derivative to find marginal profit which would be
p'(x)=3x^2-6x+8+0
then set all of the x's= to 3
p'(3)=3(3)^2-6(3)+8
p'(3)=9^2-18+8
p'(3)=81-18+8
p'(3)=71

Open Question: Finding pOH in a Chemical Reaction?

Open Question: Finding pOH in a Chemical Reaction?

Calculate the pOH of a 0.0827 M aqueous sodium cyanide solution at 25.0 °C. Kb for CN- is 4.49*10^(-10).

Do I use this equation?
NaCN(aq) + H2O(l) ? [Na+](aq) + [OH-](aq) + [H+](aq) + [CN-](aq)

? Kb/Kw = [Na+][CN-]/[NaCN] = x²/(0.0827 - x) = 4.49*10^4
---? x = 0.0826998 M = [Na+] = [CN-]

But then how would I get a pOH out of that? adding NaCN doesn't directly affect the concentration... or am I supposed to look up the pH of [CN-] on a table or something? I'm sorry, I really have no idea how to solve this.

I know it's cosine but i'm not sure about the vertical translation, amplitude, or phase shift. Is the vertical translation down 1 and the amplitude 2?
