The zeros of a function f(x) are the values of x that cause f(x) to be equal to zero
One of methods to find the zeros of polynomial functions is The Factor Theorem

It is used to analyze polynomial equations. By it we can know that there is a relation between factors and zeros.

let:  f(x)=(x−c)q(x)+r(x)

If c is one of the zeros of the function , then the remainder r(x) = f(c) =0
 and f(x)=(x−c)q(x)+0 or f(x)=(x−c)q(x)

Notice, written in this form, x – c is a factor of f(x)
the conclusion is:  if c is one of the zeros of the function of f(x),
then x−c is a factor of f(x)

And vice versa , if (x−c) is a factor of f(x), then the remainder of the Division Algorithm f(x)=(x−c)q(x)+r(x)  is 0. This tells us that c is a zero for the function.

So, we can use the Factor Theorem to completely factor a polynomial of degree n into the product of n factors. Once the polynomial has been completely factored, we can easily determine the zeros of the polynomial.

<span>B. Decreases.
  While evaporation is happening, the temperature is slowing cooling down due to not as much water in the pot that is holding the water. If you have ever taken boiling hot water and dumped half of it out, and immediately put it back on the stove, it doesn't start boiling right away. It takes minutes to heat it back up to that boiling temperature.</span>

the equation P=2(L +w) can be used to find the perimeter P of a rectangle with length L and width W. Solve the equation for w to
Alenkasestr [34]
Hello, 

We know that if we make the same operation on both sides, we don't affect the equation:

For example:  
2=2 \\ 2\bold{+2}=2\bold{+2} \\ 4=4

Do you see? we add 2 on both sides and we don't affect the equality

We can do the same with the multiplication, for example

4=4   (i'll multiply both sides by 1/2) 
4*\bold{ \frac{1}{2}}=4*\bold{ \frac{1}{2}} \\ 2=2

Now, we do exactly the same in your excercise:

P=2(L+W) \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,[multiply\,\,by\,\,1/2] \\ \\ P*\bold{ \frac{1}{2}}=2(L+W)*\bold{ \frac{1}{2}} \\  \\ \frac{P}{2}=L+W\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,[Subtract\,\,L]\\  \\ \frac{P}{2}-\bold{L}=L+W-\bold{L}\\  \\ \frac{P}{2}-\bold{L}=L-\bold{L}+W \\  \\ \frac{P}{2}-L=W\\ \\ \boxed{ W= \frac{P}{2}-L }

What is 15% of 63.20?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
15% means  0.15 .

'of' means 'times'.

The problem is      (0.15) x (63.2) .

I think you can take over and do it from here.
