Answer:

$32\ and\ 34.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smaller number.

The next even number will be (x + 2).

$x+x+2=66$

$2x+2=66$

Subtract 2 from both sides:

$2x+2-2=66-2$

$2x=64$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{64}{2}$

$x=32$

The smaller number is 32.

Larger number $=32+2=34$

B. 1069 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

$d=v_ot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2 \\\\d=(300)(4)+\dfrac{1}{2}(-32)(4)^2 \\\\d=1200-256=944$

Adding the initial 125 feet to this, you get a total height of 1069 feet. Hope this helps!

What are the zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = x3 + 2x2 − 24x?

Alik [6]

You may notice that all of the terms have a common factor: $x$ . So, let's take the $x$ out of all the terms. This gives us:

$x(x^2 + 2x - 24) = 0$

Using the Zero Product Property, we can say that both $x = 0$ and $x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0$ .

Let's solve both. $x = 0$ is obvious, but we still need to solve our other term:

$x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0$

Set up

$(x + 6)(x - 4) = 0$

Factor

$x = -6, 4$

Apply the Zero Product Property

Our answer is x = -6, 0, 4.

Ava bought $7.73$ pounds of fruit for a class party , class ate $3.59$ pounds fruits then $4.14$ pounds fruit left after party.

How can we find how much fruit is left after party ?

Ava bought $=7.73$ pounds fruit

ate by class $=3.59$ pounds fruit

fruit left after party $= total fruit -fruit ate by class$

$= 7.73-3.59\\=4.14$

So $4.14$ pound fruit is left .
