We will use the Descartes` rule of signs and see how many times the signs change from positive to negative and from negative to positive from one term to the next ( two consecutive terms are with different signs ).
In this case it is 4 times ( +7x13 to -12x9, -12x9 to +16x5, +6x5 to -23 x and finally -23x to +42 ).
Answer: There are 4 real zeroes.

_____ is an inquiry process that begins with a theory, prediction, or general principle that is then tested through data collect
Fantom [35]

<u>Answer:</u>

The<u> deductive reasoning</u> is an inquiry process that begins with a theory, prediction, or general principle that is then tested through data collection.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Deductive reasoning or logic is the reasoning mechanism from one or more statements in order to draw a logically definite inference. Deductive reasoning moves in the same direction as conditional reasoning and connects assumptions to judgments.

Both inductive and deductive reasoning aspire to build a reasonable argument. Inductive reasoning thus jumps from specific instances to a generalized conclusion, while deductive reasoning steps from generalized concepts, which are regarded to be accurate to a real and specific assertion.

A star is not considered born until the process of nuclear fusion
jonny [76]
Star is a brilliantly glowing sphere of hot gas whose energyis produced by an internalnuclear fusion process. Stars are contained in galaxies. A galaxy contains not only stars, but clouds of gas and dust. These clouds are callednebulae, and it is in a nebula where stars are born. In the nebula is hydrogen gas which is pulled together by gravityand starts to spin faster. Over millions of years, more hydrogen gas is pulled into the spinning cloud. The collisions which occur between the hydrogen atoms starts to heat the gas in the cloud. Once the temperature reaches 15,000,000 degrees Celsius, nuclear fusion takes place in the center, or core, of the cloud. The tremendous heat given off by the nuclear fusion process causes the gas to glow creating a protostar. This is the first step in the evolution of a star. The glowing protostar continues to accumulate mass. The amount of mass it can accumulate is determined by the amount ofmatter available in the nebula. Once its mass is stabilized, the star is known as a main sequence star. The new star will continue to glow for millions or even billions of years. As it glows, hydrogen is converted into helium in the core by nuclear fusion. The core starts to become unstable and it starts to contract. The outer shell of the star, which is still mostly hydrogen, starts to expand. As it expands, it cools and starts to glow red. The star has now reached the red giant phase. It is red because it is cooler than the protostar phase and it is a giant because the outer shell has expanded outward. All stars evolve the same way up to the red giant phase. The amount of mass a star has determines which of the following life cycle paths the star will take.

Which body part is vestigial in humans?
Stels [109]

Answer:

The answer is the 2nd picture: the coccyx bone in humans.

Explanation:

Vestigial Structure:

Structures or anatomical features that do not currently serve a function is the bodily processes of a living organism. Vestiges are believed to have performed active functions in the organism's ancestors throughout its evolutionary history.

Coccyx Bone:

The coccyx or tailbone is an evolutionary remnant of our tree dwelling ancestors. Coccyx has no use in modern humans as we do not need to climb trees.

The coccyx in modern humans serves as an anchor for muscles.
