Being cleaner and longer-burning compared with

Mathematics
1 answer:
givi [52]2 years ago

(C) "Cleaner and longer-burning than"

The highlighted paragraph is grammatically incorrect and makes little sense in the context because the words "being" and "compared" conflict with the remainder of the sentence's tense structure.

Only C fixes this mistake without introducing a new one (s). The past, present, and future tenses of a verb are available. Things from the past are things that have already occurred (earlier in the day, yesterday, last week, three years ago).

The present tense is used to talk about things that are ongoing or that are currently happening now. Things that are yet to occur are described in the future tense.

Here's another question with an answer similar to this about tenses:

agasfer [191]
AB=48, DC=88

48+88=136
136÷2=68

Answer: LM=68
Remember that the length of the mid segment in a trapezoid is half the sum of the base lengths.

6x+3(4x-2)=5(2x-8) the answer is -17/4 but can someone explain how to get that answer? plz help lol​
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

<h2>x =  -  \frac{17}{4}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 3(4x - 2) = 5(2x - 8)

Expand the terms in the bracket and simplify

That's

6x + 12x  - 6 = 10x - 40 \\ 18x - 6 = 10x - 40

Using the subtraction property subtract 10x from both sides of the equation

18x - 10x - 6 = 10x - 10x - 40 \\ 8x - 6 =  - 40

<u>Add 6 to both sides of the equation</u>

8x + 6 - 6 =  - 40 + 6 \\ 8x =  - 34

<u>Divide both sides by 8</u>

\frac{8x}{8}  =  -  \frac{34}{8}

<u>Reduce the fraction with 2</u>

We have the final answer as

x =  -  \frac{17}{4}

Hope this helps you

Verify that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

i) Since P(2), P(-1) and P(½) gives 0, then it's true that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial.

ii) - the sum of the zeros and the corresponding coefficients are the same

-the Sum of the products of roots where 2 are taken at the same time is same as the corresponding coefficient.

-the product of the zeros of the polynomial is same as the corresponding coefficient

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the cubic polynomial;

p(x) = 2x³ - 3x² - 3x + 2

For us to verify that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial, we will plug them into the equation and they must give a value of zero.

Thus;

P(2) = 2(2)³ - 3(2)² - 3(2) + 2 = 16 - 12 - 6 + 2 = 0

P(-1) = 2(-1)³ - 3(-1)² - 3(-1) + 2 = -2 - 3 + 3 + 2 = 0

P(½) = 2(½)³ - 3(½)² - 3(½) + 2 = ¼ - ¾ - 3/2 + 2 = -½ + ½ = 0

Since, P(2), P(-1) and P(½) gives 0,then it's true that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial.

Now, let's verify the relationship between the zeros and the coefficients.

Let the zeros be as follows;

α = 2

β = -1

γ = ½

The coefficients are;

a = 2

b = -3

c = -3

d = 2

So, the relationships are;

α + β + γ = -b/a

αβ + βγ + γα = c/a

αβγ = -d/a

Thus,

First relationship α + β + γ = -b/a gives;

2 - 1 + ½ = -(-3/2)

1½ = 3/2

3/2 = 3/2

LHS = RHS; So, the sum of the zeros and the coefficients are the same

For the second relationship, αβ + βγ + γα = c/a it gives;

2(-1) + (-1)(½) + (½)(2) = -3/2

-2 - 1½ + 1 = -3/2

-1½ - 1½ = -3/2

-3/2 = - 3/2

LHS = RHS, so the Sum of the products of roots where 2 are taken at the same time is same as the coefficient

For the third relationship, αβγ = -d/a gives;

2 * -1 * ½ = -2/2

-1 = - 1

LHS = RHS, so the product of the zeros(roots) is same as the corresponding coefficient
