Answer:
Nothing new about leading coefficient. Definition says it can't be zero. It can always be made equal to one by dividing through.
Constant term cannot be zero unless a root is zero.
Step-by-step explanation:
x-3/4 = 0 has root 3/4 constant term -3/4
(x-3/4)(x-b) = 0 has roots 3/4 and b, constant term 3b/4 which is zero only if b is zero.
(x-3/4)(x-b)(x-c) = 0 has roots 3/4, b, c, constant term -3bc/4 which is zero only if b or c is zero.
Etc. ...
That would be 5x-5 because the number inside is multiplied by the numbers inside due to the brackets. Hope u understand my explanation.
Answer:
<em>D</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Question:On Saturdays. Eve earns $14. per hour for yard work and charges an extra amount for supplies/gas money to get there. Look at the table. Choose the linear function f Eve can use to determine her pay, where x is in hours and f(x) is her pay in dollars.
Answer: <em>The answer would be D because she gets payed $14 and hour so you would plug the hours she work into the letter x</em><em>.</em>
Answer:
Credit remaining after 21 minutes = $30.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Credit remaining on a phone card is a linear function of the total calling time.
When graphed, let the linear function representing the line is,
y = mx + b
Where 'm' = slope of the line
b = y-intercept
From the graph,
Slope of the line = -0.12
y = -0.12x + b
If this line passes through a point (33, 28.96),
28.96 = -0.12(33) + b
b = 28.96 + 3.96
b = 32.92
Therefore, the linear function is,
f(x) = -0.12x + 32.92
where x = calling time
Credit left in the card after 21 minutes,
f(21) = -0.12(21) + 32.92
= -2.52 + 32.92
= $30.4
