How many cubic (i.e., third-degree) polynomials $f(x)$ are there such that $f(x)$ has positive integer coefficients and $f(1)=9$

? (note: all coefficients must be positive---coefficients are not permitted to be 0, so for example $f(x) = x^3 + 8$ is not a valid polynomial.)?

Solving special systems<br> {y=1/2x+4<br> {-1/2x+y=-5
ryzh [129]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 → (1)

- \frac{1}{2} x + y = - 5 → (2)

Substitute y = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 into (2)

- \frac{1}{2} x + \frac{1}{2} x + 4 = - 5 , that is

4 = - 5 ← not possible

This indicates the system has no solution

GRADE 7 MATH URGENT

A. 8 pizza pies at 10 pc. per pie = 80 available pieces

B. Let X be the number of children. Number of pieces eaten = 5 per child = 5X.

c. 22 pieces are left over.

D. Combine line A and line C. Total number of pieces eaten = 80 original minus 22 left over. Result 58 pieces were eaten by X children: 58 = 5X.

E. Solve the equation 58 = 5X by dividing both sides by 5.

WHOOPS! Is this a trick question? Solving the above results in the answer that there are 11.6 children at the party. Hmmm. That 0.6 child is a question mark for me.

Looks like someone miscounted the pizza slices. Or omitted some pertinent information. But, I’m sure there is a logical answer.
