C = total number of candy
.4(c) = 8 pieces of candy
Divide c by .4: c= 20
20-8=12
Ed has 12 pieces of candy at home
How many zeros does the function f(x) = 3x12 − 17x8 + 11x4 − 6x + 23 have?
Answer: the third option (12 zeros..).
Use ^ to denote an exponent..
f(x) = 3x^12 - 17x^8 + 11x^4 - 6x + 23..
We know from that fact that the number of zeros (real or complex) in a polynomial is the same as the degree of the polynomial..
The degree is the greatest/highest power of the terms, which in this case is 12 (since 12 is the greatest exponent..)..
The degree is 12, thus it means there are 12 zero's..
Answer: the third option (12 zero's )...
Answer: CONFOUNDING VARIABLES
Step-by-step explanation: Confounding variables are
unexpected external factor that affects both variables of interest, confounding variables usually gives the false impression that changes in one variable leads to changes in the other variable, when, in Actual, it is the external factor that caused the change being investigated. Confounding variables usually leads to wrong conclusions during research and experiments and are capable of causing biased outcomes when the real cause and effect relationship is not determined.
