F(x) = -4x^7 +x^3 -x^2 +5

a) It is a degree 7 polynomial, so will have 7 zeros (some may be repeated).

b) has 3 sign changes, so 1 or 3 positive real zeros. If odd powers have their signs reversed, the signs are changed to +--+, so there are 2 sign changes. There will be 0 or 2 negative real zeros.

____
There is actually 1 positive real zero and 0 negative real zeros. This means there are 3 conjugate pairs of complex zeros.

Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black. Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black. An unknown amo
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:  

Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black

15% = 15/100 = 0.15 (decimal form)

0.15 A

Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black

0.6 B

An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A,

SO:

0.15 (0.40)  

0.6 (x-0.40)

x = total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors

The result is a paint that contains 25% (0.25 in decimal form)black pigment (x)

0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
