Question

What is the approximate positive value of the x-coordinate of the point of intersection of p(x)=5x^2-3 and q(x)=2x+1

Answer 1

Hey there! :)

Answer:

x = 1.117

Explanation:

Graph the two equations:

p(x) = 5x² - 3

q(x) = 2x + 1

On the graph below, the positive point of intersection is at (1.117, 3.233).

Positive x-value = 1.117.
