Answer:

A. The difference in height between the pelican and the heron is -33 feet.

E. The difference in height between the pelican and the trout is 40 feet.

F. The distance between the heights of the pelican and the trout is 40 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The missing statements are:</h3><h3> A. The difference in height between the pelican and the heron is -33 feet</h3><h3> B. The difference in height between the pelican and the heron is 33 feet</h3><h3> C. The distance between the heights of the pelican and heron is -33 feet</h3><h3> D. The difference in height between the pelican and the trout is -40 feet</h3><h3> E. The difference in height between the pelican and the trout is 40 feet</h3><h3> F. The distance between the heights of the pelican and the trout is 40 feet.</h3><h3 />

Let be 0 the sea level.

Since the heron is perched in a tree 50 feet above sea level and directly below the heron the  pelican is flying 17 feet above sea level, you can find the difference in height between the pelican and the heron by subtracting 50 feet from 17 feet.

Then, you get that this is:

17\ feet-50\ feet=-33\ feet

Now, according the the information given in the exercise, you know that the trough is swimming directly below them and its height is 23 feet below sea level. If you represent this with an integer, this is:

-23

Therefore you can find the difference in height between the pelican and the trout through the following subtraction:

17\ feet-(-23\ feet)=17\ feet+23\ feet=40\ feet

And the distance between them is 40 feet too.

Which polynomial function has a leading coefficient of 1 and roots 21 and 31 with multiplicity 1?
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Which i think is the first one, there may just be a typing error.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial of order n has the following format:

f(x) = a(x - x_{0})(x - x_{1})...(x - x_{n-1})

In which a is the leading coefficient, x_{0}, x_{1},..., x_{n-1} are the roots.

If a root appears m times, they are said to have multiplicity m.

Leading coefficient of 1 and roots 21 and 31 with multiplicity 1

f(x) = 1(x - 21)(x - 31)

So the correct answer is:

f(x) = 1(x - 21)(x - 31)

Which i think is the first one, there may just be a typing error.
