Answer:
you have to add
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) x = {-2, 1, 3} are the zeros
b) y = (x +2)(x -1)(x -3)
c) y = x^3 -2x^2 -5x +6
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The zeros are the values of x where the graph crosses y=0. Those values are x = -2, x = 1, x = 3.
__
b) If "a" is a zero, then (x-a) is a factor. The factored polynomial is ...
y = (x +2)(x -1)(x -3)
__
c) This can be multiplied out using the distributive property several times.
y = (x +2)(x(x -3) -1(x -3))
= (x +2)(x^2 -3x -x +3)
= (x +2)(x^2 -4x +3)
= x(x^2 -4x +3) +2(x^2 -4x +3)
= x^3 -4x^2 +3x +2x^2 -8x +6
y = x^3 -2x^2 -5x +6
_____
The supplied graph apparently scales this vertically by a factor of 1/2, since its y-intercept is at (0, 3), not (0, 6).
Let the cost of 1 notebook be x and the cost of 1 binder be y.
4 notebooks and 3 binders would cost 23.5
Therefore, 4x + 3y = 23.5 (1)
7 notebooks and 6 binders would cost 44.5
Therefore, 7x + 6y = 44.5 (2)
Multiply the first equation by 2.
8x + 6y = 47 (3)
(3) - (2) gives
x = 2.5
Substitute the value of x in (1), we get,
4(2.5) + 3y = 23.5
10 + 3y = 23.5
3y = 23.5 - 10
3y = 13.5
y = 13.5/3
y = 4.5
Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is:
5x + 3y = 5(2.5) + 3(4.5)
= 12.5 + 13.5
= 26
Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is $26.
Let me help you with this :)
John = x
Mike = y
x = 4 + 3y (4 more than 3 times)
x + y = 20 (we put the x above into this equation)
4 + 3y + y = 20
4y = 16 (we transfers the 4 on the left side to the right side and subtract it from the 20)
y = 4 (the answer is 4)
we use this for the equation:
x = 4 +3*4
x = 16
John is 16 years old and Mike is 4 years old :)
The answer is A
Have to add characters to get to 20
