Answer:

2n+5 =3

n=-1

The number is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number

Twice the number

2n

Plus 5

2n+5

is means equals

2n+5 =3

Now we want to solve

Subtract 5 from each side

2n+5-5 = 3-5

2n = -2

Divide each side by 2

In the xy-plane, the graph of function f(x) has zeros at −5, −2, and 2. Write the polynomial function.
Alona [7]

Answer:

f(x) = x^3 +5x^2-4x-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Zeros: -5,-2,2

Required

The polynomial function

If a function has a, b and c as its zeros, the function is:

f(x) = (x - a)(x - b)(x - c)

So, we have:

Zeros: -5,-2,2

f(x) = (x - (-5))(x - (-2))(x - 2)

Open the inner brackets

f(x) = (x +5)(x +2)(x - 2)

Expand the difference of two squares

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

Expand

f(x) = x^3 +5x^2-4x-20

If a triangle has sides of 8,11, and 13. Is it a right triangle?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

If a² + b² = c², then the triangle is <u>right</u>.

So we have (8)² + (11)²  <u>?</u>  (13)²

(8)² is 64, (11)² is 121, and (13)² is 169.

So we have 64 + 121 <u>?</u> 169

64 + 121 is 185 and we can see that 185 > 169.

This triangle would not be a right triangle.

In fact, it would be an acute triangle.

So no, it's not a right triangle.

Roger bought two plots of land for $120000. He sold the first plot and profited 15%. He sold the second plot and lost 10%. His t
Oxana [17]
X + y = 120000
0.15x - 0.10y = 5500

Multiply both sides of bottom by 100 to remove decimals

x + y = 120000
15x - 10y = 550000

Multiply both sides of top by 10

10x + 10y = 1200000
15x - 10y = 550000

Add the two

25x = 1750000
x = 70000
He paid $70,000 for the property that made a profit, and paid $50,000 for the property that lost value.
