5 0

Answer:

    B.\cfrac{1}{2}

<h3>Given equation</h3>

  • \cfrac{12y-1}{2} =\cfrac{9y+8}{5}

<h3>Solve it for y</h3>

1. Cross - multiply:

  • 5(12y-1)=2(9y+8)

2. Open parenthesis:

  • 60y-5=18y+16

3. Collect like terms:

  • 60y-18y=16+5

4. Simplify:

  • 42y=21

5. Divide both sides by 42:

  • y=21/42=1/2

Matching answer choice is B

So, to get the reciprocal of 7/2a, you need to divide 1 by this number as follows:
reciprocal = 1 / (7/2a) = 2a/7

The answer is : 2a/7

Write a polynomial in standard form with the zeros -4,0, 1, and 4.
gavmur [86]

Answer: x^4-x^3-16x^2+16x

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor theorem : If x=a is a zero of a polynomial p(x) then (x-a) is a factor of p(x).

Given: Zeroes of polynomial : -4,0, 1, and 4.

Then Factors = (x-(-4)), (x-0), (x-1) and (x-4)   [By factor theorem ]

=(x+4), (x-0), (x-1) and (x-4)

Multiplying these factors to get polynomial in standard form.

(x+4)\times(x-0)\times(x-1)\times(x-4)  \\\\= x(x+4)(x-4)(x-1)\\\\= x(x^2-4^2)(x-1)\\\\= x(x^2-16)(x-1)\\\\= x(x^2-16)(x-1)\\\\=x(x^2x+x^2\left(-1\right)+\left(-16\right)x+\left(-16\right)\left(-1\right))\\\\= x(x^3-x^2-16x+16)\\\\=x^4-x^3-16x^2+16x

Hence, B is the correct option.
