Hi there!
The answer is
We have the following inequality.
We can divide both sides by -6, but because we divide by a negative number, we must flip the sign.
The population of the town in 10 years would be 29,937.
Answer:
The number of complex roots is 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Descartes's rule of signs tells you that the number of positive real roots is 0. The number of negative real roots will be at most 2. The minimum value of the left side will be between x=0 and x=-1, but will never be negative. Thus all six roots are complex.
_____
The magnitude of x^3 will exceed the magnitude of x^6 only for values of x between -1 and 1. Since the magnitude of either of these terms will not be more than 1 in that range, the left-side expression must be positive everywhere.
Y=1/5x-3 (subtract x on each side then divide each by 6)
C. 11.3 cents per ounce
The 20-oz ham is $8.75/20 ounces = $0.4375/ounce
The 3-lb ham is 3 x 16 ounces = 48 ounces. Cost is $15.60/48 ounces = $0.325/ounce.
The difference in cost per ounce is 0.4375 - 0.325 = $0.1125 = 11.3 cents/ounce, rounded.
