The following function is quadratic. f(x)=(x+4)(x-6) what is the value of the positive x-intercept of the graph of the related equation y = (x+4)(x-6)?

6

You replace f(x) or y with 0, and then solve for x

y = (x+4)(x-6)

(x+4)(x-6) = y

(x+4)(x-6) = 0

x+4 = 0 or x-6 = 0 zero product property

x = -4 or x = 6

The x intercepts are -4 and 6. In this case, only 6 is the positive x intercept.

side note: The term "root" is another way to say "x-intercept"

i can you with this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
