The count the number of times the sign changes
that is how many positive roots there are
if you get a number that is ≥2, then count down by 2's ending at 0

sub -x for x and evaluate
count change in sign again
that is how many negative roots there are
if you get a number that is ≥2, then count down by 2's ending at 0


so

-2x^3+3x^2-5x-2=0
-,+,-,-
 1  2 
2 or 0 positive roots


x to -x
2x^3+3x^2+5x-2=0
+,+,+,-
       1
1 negative root



2 or 0 positive roots and 1 negative root

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

7 / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points:

points (0, 0) and (6, 7)

Point 1 : x1 = 0 ; y1 = 0

Point 2 : x2 = 6 ; y2 = 7

The rise = y2 - y1 = 7 - 0 = 7

The run = x2 - x1 = 6 - 0 = 6

Ratio of Rise to Run = Rise / Run = 7 / 6

The cost CC (in dollars) of making nn watches is represented by C=15n+85C=15n+85. How many watches are made when the cost is $38
dangina [55]
\bf \stackrel{cost}{C}=15\stackrel{watches}{n}+85\qquad \boxed{C=385}\qquad \stackrel{cost}{385}=15n+85
\\\\\\
380=15n\implies \cfrac{380}{15}=n\implies \cfrac{76}{3}=n\implies 25\frac{1}{3}=n

so, 25 whole watches and hmmmm just the wristband of another maybe.
