Answer:

The minimum boxes of cookies is 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of boxes of cookies sold

y ----> the number of boxes of candies sold

we know that

The word "at least" means "greater than or equal to"

so

The inequality that represent this problem is

5.25x+8.75y\geq 200

The solution is the shaded area above the solid line   5.25x+8.75y=200

using a graphing tool

The solution is the shaded area -----> see the attached figure

Find out the minimum boxes of cookies needed to sell to reach the goal

assuming only cookies are sold

For y=0

5.25x+8.75(0)\geq 200

5.25x\geq 200

solve for x

x\geq 38.1

Round up

therefore

The minimum boxes of cookies is 39

Angie divides the polynomial function f(x)=x3+3x2−7x−21 by (x + 3). What can she conclude from the fact that the remainder is eq
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function</u>

  • f(x)=x³ + 3x²- 7x - 21

<u>We can find its factors:</u>

  • x³ + 3x² - 7x - 21 =
  • x²(x + 3) - 7(x + 3) =
  • (x² - 7)(x + 3)

We can conclude that the given polynomial function is fully divisible by (x + 3) and the quotient is (x² - 7)

Also one of zeros of the function is -3
