There are no zeroes for an expression, only for equations.
Assuming equation to be
<span>−7x^2 − 91x − 280=0
-7(x^2+13x+40)=0
-7(x+8)(x+5)=0
by the zero product properties, 
x+8=0 => x=-8
or 
x+5=0 => x=-5</span>

Find the value of r in (4, r), (r, 2) so that the slope of the line containing them is −53
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

C) 7

===========================================

Work Shown:

Use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)

-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying

-5r+20 = 6-3r

-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides

20 = 6+2r

20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides

14 = 2r

2r = 14

2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2

r = 7

The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-7)/(7-4)

m = -5/3

The answer is confirmed

200 grams of fertilizer are used for each tree in an orchard containing 1200 trees. at $2.75 per kilogram of fertilizer, how muc
stiks02 [169]
To determine the cost to fertilize the trees, you need to figure out how many kilograms of fertilizer are needed. With the information given, you can determine The number of grams needed to fertilize 1200 trees. To do this you would multiply 200 times 1200. This equals 240,000 grams. To convert this to kilograms, divide 240000g by 1000 g. Every group of 1000 g is 1 kg. The answer is 240 kilograms. Multiply 240 kg by the price of $2.75 per kilogram to get $660 as the cost.

Solve the system by using a matrix equation.<br> --4x - 5y = -5<br> -6x - 8y = -2
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Solution : (15, - 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve this problem using a matrix, so it would be wise to apply Gaussian elimination. Doing so we can start by writing out the matrix of the coefficients, and the solutions ( - 5 and - 2 ) --- ( 1 )

\begin{bmatrix}-4&-5&|&-5\\ -6&-8&|&-2\end{bmatrix}

Now let's begin by canceling the leading coefficient in each row, reaching row echelon form, as we desire --- ( 2 )

Row Echelon Form :

\begin{pmatrix}1\:&\:\cdots \:&\:b\:\\ 0\:&\ddots \:&\:\vdots \\ 0\:&\:0\:&\:1\end{pmatrix}

Step # 1 : Swap the first and second matrix rows,

\begin{pmatrix}-6&-8&-2\\ -4&-5&-5\end{pmatrix}

Step # 2 : Cancel leading coefficient in row 2 through R_2\:\leftarrow \:R_2-\frac{2}{3}\cdot \:R_1,

\begin{pmatrix}-6&-8&-2\\ 0&\frac{1}{3}&-\frac{11}{3}\end{pmatrix}

Now we can continue canceling the leading coefficient in each row, and finally reach the following matrix.

\begin{bmatrix}1&0&|&15\\ 0&1&|&-11\end{bmatrix}

As you can see our solution is x = 15, y = - 11 or (15, - 11).
