Answer:

<em>f(x)=x²-3x-10</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{gathered}f(x) = x {}^{2} - 3x - 10 \\ to \: find \: x \: intercept \:o r \: zero \: substitute \: f(x) = 0\: \\ 0 = x {}^{2} - 3x - 10 \\ x {}^{2} - 3x - 10 = 0 \\ x {}^{2} + 2x - 5x - 10 = 0 \\ x(x + 2) - 5x - 10 = 0 \\ x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2) = 0 \\ (x + 2).(x - 5) = 0 \\ x + 2 = 0 \\ x - 5 = 0 \\ x = - 2 \\ x = 5\end{gathered}

f(x)=x

+2x−5x−10=0

x(x+2)−5x−10=0

x(x+2)−5(x+2)=0

(x+2).(x−5)=0

x+2=0

x−5=0

x=−2

x=5

therefore the zeros of the equation are x₁=-2,x₂=5

5. There are 8 sections of seats in an auditorium. Each section contains at least 150 seats but not more than 200 seats. Which o
zaharov [31]

Answer:

1300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of sections = 8

Number of seats per section, x ;

150 ≤ x ≤ 200

The possible Number of seats in the auditorium :

Number of seats per section * number of sections

150 * 8 ≤ x ≤ 200 * 8

1200 ≤ x ≤ 1600

The possible Number of seats will lie within 1200 and 1600

From the options, only 1300 lie within this range

if the survey, 9/25 of students ride the bus to school and 19/50 walk to school. what fraction of students ride the bus or walk
Elena-2011 [213]

1. \dfrac{9}{25} of students ride the bus to school. Note that

\dfrac{9}{25}=\dfrac{9\cdot 2}{25\cdot 2}=\dfrac{18}{50}.

2. \dfrac{19}{50} of students walk to school.

3. The fraction of students that ride the bus or walk to school is

\dfrac{18}{50}+\dfrac{19}{50}=\dfrac{18+19}{50}=\dfrac{37}{50}.

Answer: the fraction of students that ride the bus or walk to school is \dfrac{37}{50}.

What is the f of x over the g of x when f(x) = 6x3 − 19x2 + 16x − 4 and g(x) = x − 2? (2 points)
VikaD [51]
You're being asked to divide 6x^3 - 19x^2 + 16x - 4 by x - 2.

Try using synthetic division, if you know it:

     _______________
2  /   6    -19    16    -4
              12     -14    4
    --------------------------
        6     -7       2     0

6, -7 and 2 are the coefficients of the quotient.  The quotient (answer to this question) is

6x^2 - 7x + 2
