We can write this as:-

P(x) = + x^3 - 5x^2 - 25x + 125
There are 2 changes of real sign so by Descartes Rule of  signs there are either 2  positive real roots or 0 positive roots.

P(-x)  = - x^3 - 5x^2 + 25x + 125 
There is just one change of sign  so  there is exactly 1 real negative root.

125 is a multiple of 5 so By rational root theorem  5 could be  a positive root.

P(5) =  125 - 125 - 125 + 125  = 0   so one zero is  5
if we divide   the polynomial by (x - 5) we get the quadratic
x^2 - 25 
(x + 5)(x - 5) = 0

x = 5,-5

so the roots are 5 (multiplicity 2)  and -5.
2 real positive zeroes  and one real negative zero

And it's elimination using addition and subtraction <br> x-y=1<br> x+y=3
MatroZZZ [7]
Get one x+y=3 to y=x+3 and plug it into x-y=1 and you get x-(x+3)=1. Destitute the x and solve. Once you get what x equals plug it to to either equation for the value of x and solve for y

Water runs from a pump at a rate of 0.5 gallons per minute. At this rate, how long would it take to fill a tub with a 150-gallon
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

300 min or 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

so if it pumps 0.5 gallons per minute than in 2 minutes it would pump 1 whole gallon so with that we know 1gallon=2 minutes.

so with that we multipy both sides by 150 which will be 150 galons=300 minutes or 5 hours
