5 0

Answer:

The roots are 0, 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3-7x^2-12x = 0 Take out x:

x(x^2 - 7x - 12) = 0 Factor the expression in the brackets:

x(x - 3)(x - 4) = 0

x = 0 or x - 3 = 0 or x - 4 = 0, so

The roots are 0, 3 and 4.

A Pharmacist whishes to mix a solution that is 6% Minoxidil. She has on hand 100 ml of 4% solution and wishes to add some 8% sol

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

She would need 100 ml of the 8% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

You can always answer these questions using a proportion. The numerator will represent the amount of Minoxidil, and the denominator will represent the total amount of solution

She already ha 100 ml of a 4% solution. That means that she has 4 ml of Minoxidil already

$\frac{4 + 0.08(S)}{100 + S} =\frac{6}{100}$

We can multiply both sides by 100 for simplicity

$\frac{400 + 8S}{100+S}=6\\ 400 + 8S =6(100 + S)\\400 + 8S = 600 + 6S\\2S = 200\\S = 100$

Tara is using matrix multiplication to find image points of a translation. She is translating the image 2 units left and 4 units

Ahat [919]

Assuming that this is just on a 2-D coordinate plane, we must convert the expressions on to a 3-D plane since translation cannot be done on a 2-D plane. This is done by adding a dummy coordinate that does not change. Let us use "1" for this case.

Matrix:
| 0 0 -2 |(x) = (x - 2)
<span>| 0 0 4 |(y) = (y + 4)
</span><span>| 0 0 1 |(1) = 1</span>
