Let's pick an arbitrary value of 5.

P(5) = 2(5)^{3} - 5(5)^{2} - 10(5) + 5
= 2(125) - 125 - 50 + 5
= 250 - 125 - 50 + 5
= 80 > 0

Let's pick another arbitrary value: 1

P(1) = 2 - 5 - 10 + 5
= -8 < 0

Between these two values, the polynomial is continuous. This means for the two polynomial points to be satisfied, there must be at least one root between these two points.

We can either use the Intermediate Value Theorem or Newton's method to make a better approximation from there.

Factor completely and then place the factors in the proper location on the grid. 36x 2 + 60x + 25
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Since 36x² + 60x + 25 is the perfect square trinomial, we use this formula a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)². Hence, the solution is (6x + 5)²

Choose the system of inequalities that best matches the graph below.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

D) y\:, y\:>\:-x

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue boundary line has a y-intercept of 2 and a slope of  2.

It has equation : y=2x+2

Since the boundary line is not solid and the lower half plane of this line is shaded, its inequality is

y\:

The blue boundary line passes through the origin and has slope -1.

Its equation is y=-x.

Since the boundary line is not solid and the right half-plane is shaded, its inequality is y\:>\:-x

The correct choice is D.

anna owes home antiques Whose value is 160000 today assuming normal growth. however anna believes the value will grow at 16% per
Ray Of Light [21]
The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value?
P present value 160000
R interest rate 0.16
T time 3years
A=160,000×(1+0.16)^(3)
A=249,743.36

Use that future value to find the present value at a rate 8% compounded annually
To find p (present value) solve the formula for p
P=A÷ (1+r)^t
Where r is 0.08
P=249,743.36÷(1+0.08)^(3)
p=198,254.33
