Simplify completely quantity 6 x minus 12 over 10

1 answer:

3 0

In Math, we do multiplication and division from left to right, so the problem will be set up like this.
$\frac{6\left(-12\right)}{10}$
First, let's remove the parenthesis...
$=\frac{-6\cdot \:12}{10}$
Multiply the numerators...
$=\frac{-72}{10}$
There's a fraction rule that states: $\frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}$
Apply it...
$=-\frac{72}{10}$
Cancel the common factor, which is 2.
$=-\frac{36}{5}$
Done!

Have a nice day! :)

If x = 3 is a zero of the polynomial function f(x) = 2x3 + x2 − 25x + 12, which of the following is another zero of f(x)?a. x =

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

b) $x=-4$ is another zero of the polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are given a set of options to choose from, a very simple way to find the zero of the polynomial is by simply plugging each value from the options and seeing which of them gives the answer 0.

$f(x) = 2x^3+x^2-25x+12\\$

Using all the options:

$a)\,f(-3) = 2(-3)^3+(-3)^2-25(-3)+12\\f(-3) = 42\\\\b)\,f(4) = 2(4)^3+(4)^2-25(4)+12\\f(4) = 56\\\\c)\,f(-4) = 2(-4)^3+(-4)^2-25(-4)+12\\f(-4) = 0\\\\d)\,f(12) = 2(12)^3+(12)^2-25(12)+12\\f(12) = 3312$

Now we know that at x = -4 the value of the polynomial f(x) is 0. hence

b) $x=-4$ is another zero of the polynomial

Can two box plots have the same range and iqr

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Yes they can! Just because two plots have the same IQR and range, does not mean that the rest of the data has to be the exact same. For example, the median.

A fruit stand sells apples, peaches and tomatoes. Today, they sold 4 apples for every 5 peaches. They sold 2 peaches for every 3

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

He sold 32 apples, 40 peaches and 60 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

4 apples are sold every 5 peaches and

3 tomatoes are sold every 2 peaches.

i.e. the ratio is apples: peaches = 4 : 5 ...... (1)

and the ratio peaches: tomatoes = 2 : 3 ...... (2)
