Answer:

p = 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) First, we have to isolate x

2) To isolate x, first -6 from +6 and 48

+6 - 6 = 0

48 - 6 = 42

Equation: 2.4p = 42

3) Now we are left with 2.4p = 42

4) Next, divide 2.4 from 2.4 and 42

2.4/2.4 = 0

42/2.4 = 17.5

5) We are left with

p = 17.5

Therefore, the answer is p = 17.5

Hope this helps!

A Gardner is planting two types of trees

Nina [5.8K]

It will take 6 years for the trees to have same height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Type A tree;

Initial height = 9 feet

We will convert feet into inches because growth is in inches.

1 feet = 12 inches

9 feet = 12*9 = 108 inches

Growth rate = 6 inches per year

Let,

x be the number of years.

A(x) = 108 + 6x

Type B;

Initial height = 4 feet = 4*12 = 48 inches

Growth rate = 16 inches per year

B(x) = 48 + 16x

The height will be same, when functions are equal

A(x) = B(x)

$108+6x=48+16x\\108-48=16x-6x\\60=10x\\10x=60$

Dividing both sides by 6

$\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{60}{10}\\x=6$

It will take 6 years for the trees to have same height.

Write a polynomial in factored form that has the given zeros:

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 4)^2*(x - 5)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

For a polynomial P(x) with zeros (or roots):

x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ

And a leading coefficient (the one that multiplies the term of highest degree) A, we can write the polynomial as:

P(x) = A*(x - x₁)*(x - x₂)*...*(x - xₙ)

Now, some of these roots can be repeated.

For example if x₁ = x₂

Then we say that the root x₁ has a multiplicity of two.

And we write the polynomial as:

P(x) = A*(x - x₁)^2*(x - x₃)*....*(x - xₙ)

Now, if we have a polynomial with the roots (or zeros):

Zero at -4 with a multiplicity of 2 (we have the root x = -4 two times)

Zero at 5 with a multiplicity of 3 (we have the root x = 5 3 times)

(And a leading coefficient A = 1, I assume)

This polynomial will be written as:

f(x) = (x - (-4))*(x - (-4))*(x - 5)*(x - 5)*(x - 5)

f(x) = (x + 4)*(x + 4)*(x - 5)*(x - 5)*(x - 5)

f(x) = (x + 4)^2*(x - 5)^3

The correct option is the third one:
