What are the zeros of f(x) = x3 + 6x2 + 3x – 10 ?

1 answer:

One of the zeroes would be : x = 1

f (1) = 1^3 + 6(1) ^2 + 3 (1) - 10

f(1) = 1 + 6 + 3 - 10

f (1) = 10 - 10

f (1) = 0

Hope this helps

What is the equation, in standard form, of a parabola that models the values in the table? x~ -1 0 2

Inessa05 [86]

<h2>Steps</h2>

Standard Form Equation: f(x) = ax² + bx + c

So firstly, since (0,5) is one of our values we can plug it into the standard form equation to solve for the c variable (since 0 will cancel out the a and b variable):

$5=a*0^2+b*0+c\\5=c$

Now we know that the value of c is 5. Next, plug in (-1,12) into the standard form equation and simplify (remember to also plug in 5 for the c variable):

$12=a*(-1)^2+b*(-1)+5\\12=a-b+5\\7=a-b$

Next, plug (2,15) into the standard form equation and simplify:

$15=a*2^2+b*2+5\\15=4a+2b+5\\10=4a+2b\\5=2a+b$

Now, with our last two simplified equations we will create a system of equations:

$7=a-b\\5=2a+b$

Now, I will be using the elimination method with this system. With the system, add up the equations together and you will get:

$12=3a$

From here, we can solve for the a variable. With it, just divide both sides by 3:

$4=a$

Now that we know the value of a, plug it into either equation to solve for the b variable:

$7=4-b\\3=-b\\-3=b\\\\5=2(4)+b\\5=8+b\\-3=b$

<h2>Answer</h2>

Putting all of our obtained values together, your final answer is:

$f(x)=4x^2-3x+5$

A carpenter has two lengths of wood; one is 108cm long and the other is 72cm long. He wants to cut them up to produce smaller pi

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

36 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you must find the Greatest common factor.

2. List the prime factor of 108 and 72:

$108:(2)(2)(3)(3)(3)=(2^{2})(3^{3})\\ 72:(2)(2)(2)(3)(3)=(2^{3})(3^{2})$

3. Now, you must choose the common prime numbers with the lowest exponents and multiply them:

$(2^{2})(3^{2})=(4)(9)=36$

A hemisphere of radius 9 sits on a horizontal plane. A cylinder stands with its axis vertical, the center of its base at the cen

ikadub [295]

Answer:

The radius and height of the cylinder of maximum volume is 9 unit and 9 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 9

According to figure,

Radius of cylinder = Radius of hemisphere

Center of cylinder base is also center of sphere.

Circular top of cylinder touching the top of hemisphere.

So, Height of cylinder = radius of hemisphere

$h = r$

$h = 9\ unit$

Hence, The radius and height of the cylinder of maximum volume is 9 unit and 9 unit.
