Answer:

the zero of a function is the value of x which makes the final value zero

First Equation:

So let 25 - 2x equal to 0

25 - 2x = 0

x = 12.5

Second Equation:

Let 2x² - 11x - 6 equal to zero

2x² - 11x - 6 = 0

2x² - 12x + x - 6 = 0 (Splitting the middle term)

2x(x - 6) + 1(x - 6) = 0

(2x + 1) (x - 6) = 0

So we can transpose either one of the brackets below the zero

(2x + 1) = 0 or (x-6) = 0

x = -1/2 or x = 6

Which list orders the number from least to greatest

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Option C

-5, -2, 1, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

to get the list that orders the numbers from the least to the greatest, we need to, first of all, know the smallest and the largest numbers.

The largest number is easy to guess - it is undoubtedly 3.

However, the smallest number may be a bit tricky because we are dealing with negative numbers. When dealing with negative numbers, the numbers with greater magnitudes are actually smaller. This means that -5 is less than -3, which is less than -2, and so on.

Coming back to our question, we can now order the numbers as -5, -2, 1, 3 which is option C

I'd say this high concentration is due to geological processes
Geological processes are things such as erosion, tectonic plate shifts, e.t.c.
