ANSWER

A. -3, -2, 2, and 3

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial function is,

f(x) = {x}^{4} - 13 {x}^{2} + 36

To find the real roots, we equate the function to zero to obtain;

{x}^{4} - 13 {x}^{2} + 36 = 0

We can solve this equation as a quadratic equation in
{x}^{2}.

Thus we rewrite the equation as,

({x}^{2})^{2} - 13 {x}^{2} + 36 = 0

We split the middle term to get,

({x}^{2})^{2} - 9 {x}^{2} - 4 {x}^{2} + 36 = 0.

We factor to get,

{x}^{2} ( {x}^{2} - 9) - 4( {x}^{2} - 9) = 0

We factor to get,

( {x}^{2} - 9)( {x}^{2} - 4) = 0

Either

{x}^{2} - 9 = 0
or

{x}^{2} - 4 = 0

x = \pm \sqrt{9} \: or \: x = \pm \sqrt{4}
x = \pm3 \: or \: x = \pm2

x=-3,-2,2,3

The correct answer is A

X^4 - 13x^2  + 36 = 0

(x^2 - 9)(x^2 - 4) = 0

x^2 - 9  = 0  gives x = 3, -3

x^2 - 4  = 0,  gives x = 2, -2.

Answer is A.

amid [387]
The complete question is
<span>There are two flavors of ice cream; strawberry and chocolate. the amount of strawberry ice cream is in the shape of a sphere. the amount of chocolate ice cream fills the rest of the cone. the dimensions of the sphere is 6cm and the cone is 12cm.

the figure is not drawn to scale  

A. what is the volume, in cubic centimeters of the right circular cone ?show or explain how you got your answer.
B. the amount of strawberry ice cream is in the shape of a sphere. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the strawberry ice cream?
C. what is the total volume in cubic centimeters of all the ice creams?
D.the amount of chocolate ice cream fills the rest of the cone. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the chocolate ice cream?  

we know that
the height of the cone is 12 cm
the diameter of a cone is 6 cm

Part A) </span>what is the volume, in cubic centimeters of the right circular cone? show or explain how you got your answer.

we know that
the volume of a cone=(1/3)*pi*r²*h
r=6/2----> 3 cm
h=12 cm
The volume of a cone=(1/3)*pi*3²*12------> 36*pi cm³-------> 113.04 cm³

the answer part A) is 36*pi cm³  (113.04 cm³)

Part B) the amount of strawberry ice cream is in the shape of a sphere. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the strawberry ice cream?
volume of a sphere=(4/3)*pi*r³
r=3 cm
volume of a sphere=(4/3)*pi*3³-----> 36*pi cm³------> 113.04 cm³

the answer part B) is 36*pi cm³  (113.04 cm³)

Part C) what is the total volume in cubic centimeters of all the ice creams?
volume of the cone+volume of a hemisphere

36*pi+18*pi-----> 54*pi cm³-------> 169.56 cm³

the answer Part C) is 54*pi cm³ (169.56 cm³)

Part D) .the amount of chocolate ice cream fills the rest of the cone. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the chocolate ice cream?
volume of a cone-volume of a hemisphere
36*pi-18*pi-----> 18*pi cm³-----> 56.52 cm³

the answer Part D) is 18*pi cm³ (56.52 cm³)

Juan ran of a mile 2/5 every 4/7 of an hour. Find Juan’s rate in miles per hour
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Juan runs 7/10 of a mile every hour

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out how much he ran every 1/7 of an hour

2/5 x 1/4 = 4/7 x 1/4

1/10 = 1/7

1/10 x 7 = 1/7 x 7

7/10 = 1
