Answer and Step-by-step explanation

2, -4, 6, -8, 10, -12, 14, -16
These are the next three numbers in the pattern :-12, 14, -16
Answer:
-5, multiplicity 3; +9, multiplicity 2; -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The roots of f(x) are those values of x that make the factors be zero. For a factor of x-a, the root is x=a, because a-a=0. If the factor appears n times, then the root has multiplicity n.
f(x) = (x+5)^3(x-9)^2(x+1) has roots ...
- -5 with multiplicity 3
- +9 with multiplicity 2
- -1
Given:
The equation for the area of the first option is:

Where x is the side length of the current square park.
To find:
The side length of the current square park.
Solution:
We have,

It can be written as:

Splitting the middle term, we get




We know that the side length of a park cannot be negative. So, the only possible value of x is 320.
Therefore, the most direct method to solve the given equation is splitting the middle term and the side length of the current square park is 320 meters.
The answer is B. The data is similar throughout the line.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 3-digit number is <u>abc</u> = 100a + 10b + c.
<u>We have:</u>
- 100a + 10b + c - 100c - 10b - a = 297
- b = a - 6
- a = 2c - 2
<u>Simplify the first equation:</u>
- 99a - 99c = 297
- a - c = 3
- a = c + 3
<u>Solve for c by substitution:</u>
- 2c - 2 = c + 3
- 2c - c = 3 + 2
- c = 5
<u>Find a:</u>
<u>Find b:</u>
<u>The number is:</u>
