Boys : Girls = 2:7
let the no. of boys be x
so no of girls = 250+x
so, x:(250+x) = 2:7
x/(250+x) = 2/7
7x = 500+2x
7x-2x = 500
x = 500/5 =100

According to the rational root theorem, what are all the potential rational roots of f(x)=5x^3-7x+11

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$\pm11,\pm1,\pm\frac{11}{5},\pm\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial function is

$f(x)=5x^3-7x+11$

According to the Rational Roots Theorem, the ratio of all factors of the constant term expressed over the factors of the leading coefficient.

The potential rational roots are

$\pm\frac{11}{1}=\pm11$

$\pm\frac{1}{1}=\pm1$

$\pm\frac{11}{5}$

$\pm\frac{1}{5}$
