Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f(x) be the 3rd degree polynomial function.

The roots of this function are:

x=-2, x=-1 and x=3.

The factored form is:

f(x) = a(x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3)

This equation passes through (2,12)

This implies that;

a(2 + 2)(2+ 1)(2 - 3) = 12 \\  - 12a = 12 \\ a =  - 1

The polynomial function is

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

A bag contains 3 red marbles 4 blue marbles and 7 Green marbles if two marbles are drawn out of the bag what is the probability
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

0.368

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red marbles= 3

Number of blue marbles= 4

Number of green marbles= 7

Total number of marbles= 3+4+7= 14

Let the first ball is taken out to be red

P(R)=\frac{3}{14}

than again a second ball is drawn, number of balls left= 14-1=13

Number of red= 2

P(R)=\frac{2}{13}

Total probability=\frac{3}{14}+\frac{2}{13}

Total probability= 0.368

Hence, the correct answer is 0.368

Olivia family drove to Disney land For spring break. Her mom and dad shared the driving duties for a total of 14 hours. her mom
Kay [80]

Mom drove for 11 hours.

Dad drove for 3 hours.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Total hours = 14 hours
  • Total distance = 895 miles
  • Mom drove a speed of 65 mph
  • Dad drove a speed of 60 mph

Let 'x' be the number of hours drove by mom.

Let 'y' be the number of hours drove by dad.

x + y = 14     ---------------(1)

65x + 60y = 895  ---------(2)

Multiply eq(1) by 60 and subtract eq(2) from (1),

60x + 60y = 840

-(<u>65x + 60y = 895</u>)

 <u> -5x   = -55    </u>

x = 55/5

x = 11

∴ Mom drove for 11 hours.

Substitute x=11 in eq(1)

11+y = 14

y = 3

∴ Dad drove for 3 hours.

Using 6 as a denominator, what fraction completes the following
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by converting 1 into 6/6 and 1/3 into 2/6. This makes subtraction much easier, and by subtracting the numerators, (6/6 - 2/6) you should get 4/6.
