Solve this and explain it for me

Citrus2011 [14]3 years ago

Answer:

1 year.

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an expression for each in terms of x, where x is the number of years gone by.

for type a, it starts at 5 feet, and grows 9 inches per year.

so 5 + 9x = total height after x years

for type b, it starts at 8 feet and grows 6 inches per year, so 8 + 6x = total height after x years.

we want to find after how many years will they have the same so set them equal to each other and solve for x.

9x + 5 = 6x + 8

3x = 3

x = 1

Which is the polynomial function of lowest degree with rational real coefficients, a leading coefficient of 3 and roots
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

f(x) = 3x^{3}  - 6x^{2} - 15x + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If  \sqrt{5}  is a root, then so is -\sqrt{5}

f(x) = 3(x + \sqrt{5})(x - \sqrt{5})(x - 2)

     = 3(x^{2} - 5)(x - 2)

     = 3(x^{3} - 2x^{2} - 5x + 10)

     = 3x^{3}  - 6x^{2} - 15x + 30
