2.1 Exercise 73

Note: With linear/straight line functions the zero is not really a “guess,” but it is necessary to enter a “guess” so it will search and find the exact x-intercept between your right and left boundaries. With other types of functions (more than one x-intercept), they may be irrational numbers so “guess” is more appropriate to give it the correct limits to find a very close approximation between the left and right boundaries.

$\text{Y}_{1} = \frac{3 x + 5}{4}$ Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.
