One year is 12 months.  12 mm is 1.2 cm.

Write and solve a proportion

We want to find the zeros of this polynomial:
slava [35]

Answer:

x=-3        x=-1            x=2         x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = (x^2 + 4x + 3)(x^2 – 4)

Set this equal to zero to find the x intercepts

0 = (x^2 + 4x + 3)(x^2 – 4)

Using the zero product property

(x^2 + 4x + 3) =0      (x^2 – 4)  =0

Factor

(x+3)(x+1) =0            (x-2) (x+2)=0

Using the zero product property

x+3 =0  x+1 =0          x-2 =0  x+2 =0

x=-3        x=-1            x=2         x=-2

A 5000 seat theater has tickets for sale at 26 and 40. How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The number of tickets for sale at $26 should be 3300

The number of tickets for sale at $40 should be 1700

Step-by-step explanation:

Use 2 equations to represent the modifiers within the problem:

5000 = a + b \\ 153800 = 26a + 40b

Now you want to find the point at which the variables are changed to make both equations correct, this can be done by graphing and finding the intersection of both lines.

5000 = 3300 + 1700 \\ 153800 = 26(3300) + 40(1700)

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation 6x^2 – 5x = 56.
frez [133]

Answer:

x = 7/2 or x = -8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

6 x^2 - 5 x = 56

Divide both sides by 6:

x^2 - (5 x)/6 = 28/3

Add 25/144 to both sides:

x^2 - (5 x)/6 + 25/144 = 1369/144

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 5/12)^2 = 1369/144

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 5/12 = 37/12 or x - 5/12 = -37/12

Add 5/12 to both sides:

x = 7/2 or x - 5/12 = -37/12

Add 5/12 to both sides:

Answer:  x = 7/2 or x = -8/3
