The answer is 37 years old.

I = -425x² + 45500x -650000
I = 450000

-425x² + 45500x -650000 = 450000
-425x² + 45500x - 650000 - 450000 = 0
-425x² + 45500x - 1100000 = 0

Divide all factors by 25:
- 17x² + 1820x - 44000 = 0

This is quadratic equation (ax² + bx + c = 0)
x_{1,2} = \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{ 1820^{2}-4*(-17)*(-44000) } }{2*(-17)} = \\  \\ = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{3312400-2992000 } }{-34} = \frac{-1820+/- \sqrt{320400} }{-34} =\frac{-1820+/- 566}{-34}  \\  \\ 
x_1= \frac{-1820+ 566}{-34}= -37 \\  \\ 
x_2 = \frac{-1820- 566}{-34}=70

Since, the youngest age is needed, the correct answer is x = 37

Evaluate the expression m + o for m = 9 and o = 7.
Andrews [41]
M = 9

o = 7

m + 0 = 9 + 7 = 16

Hence, the answer is 16.

The graph of a polynomial S(x) = (2x - 3)(x – 4)(x+3) has x-intercepts at 3.x values.
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercepts exist where y is equal to 0. Where y is equal to 0 is where the graph goes through the x-axis. Our x-intercepts are (2x-3), (x + 3), and (x-4). Again, since x-intercepts exist where y = 0, then by the Zero Product Property, 2x - 3 = 0, x - 4 = 0, and x + 3 = 0. In the first x-intercept:

2x - 3 = 0 and

2x = 3 so

x = 3/2

In the second:

x - 4 = 0 so

x = 4

In the third:

x + 3 = 0 so

x = -3

So the x-intercepts in the correct order are x = 3/2, 4, -3

grin007 [14]

Only A and B form subspaces of P_2 and P_4, respectively.

C does not form a subspace because it does not contain the zero vector.
