Answer:

1.6% shrinkage

Step-by-step explanation:

907,340 - 875,435 = 31,905

31,905 / 1,988,345 = .0160  = 1.6%

Using the Factor Theorem, which of the polynomial functions has the zeros 2, radical 3 , and negative radical 3 ?
Alja [10]

Using the factor theorem, it is found that the polynomial is:

f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x + 6

Given by the first option

---------------------------

Given a polynomial f(x), this polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{n} using the factor theorem it can be written as: a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})*...*(x-x_n), in which a is the leading coefficient.

---------------------------

In this question:

  • x_1 = 2
  • x_2 = \sqrt{3}
  • x_3 = -\sqrt{3}
  • By the options, leading coefficient a = 1

Thus:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x - \sqrt{3})(x + \sqrt{3})

f(x) = (x - 2)(x^2 - 3)

f(x) = x^3 -2x^2 - 3x + 6

Which is the polynomial.

A company has six employees.The salary of five of the employees are P2200,P1300,P800,P940 and P560.When the sixth employee is in
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

First answer is 1200

Second answer is 900 for each new employee

Step-by-step explanation:

First answer:

2200+1300+800+940+560+x = 7000

5800+x = 7000 subtract 5800 from both sides and you get your answer

x = 1200

Second answer:

x = 900.  Each of the two employees made 900 a month or 1800 a month for both of them.

To find the average we take the total salaries and divide by the number of people to find the average salary.  In this case, we know the average and we know all of the salaries, but two.  We can figure this out.

(7000 + 2x)/8 = 1100  multiple both sides by 8 to clear the fraction/

7000 +2x = 8800  Subtract both sides by 7000

2x = 1800  Divide both sides by 2

x = 900

Answer please lot's of points.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

t≈8.0927

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 128t +12

We want to find when h(t) is zero ( or when it hits the ground)

0 =  -16t^2 + 128t +12

Completing the square

Subtract 12 from each side

-12  =  -16t^2 + 128t

Divide each side by -16

-12/-16  =  -16/-16t^2 + 128/-16t

3/4 = t^2 -8t

Take the coefficient of t and divide it by 8

-8/2 = -4

Then square it

(-4) ^2 = 16

Add 16 to each side

16+3/4 = t^2 -8t+16

64/4 + 3/4= (t-4)^2

67/4 = (t-4)^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt(67/4) =sqrt( (t-4)^2)

±1/2sqrt(67) = (t-4)

Add 4 to each side

4 ±1/2sqrt(67) = t

The approximate values for t are

t≈-0.092676

t≈8.0927

The first is before the rocket is launched so the only valid answer is the second one

Where is (0,19) located? Quadrant I Quadrant II Quadrant III Quadrant IV X-axis Y-axis
12345 [234]
Let P(a, b) be a point on the coordinate plane. Then the following hold:


i) If a>0, b>0 then P is in the I.Quadrant.

ii) If a<0, b>0 then P is in the II.Quadrant.

iii) If a<0, b<0 then P is in the III.Quadrant.

iv) If a>0, b<0 then P is in the IV.Quadrant.

v) If a=0 and b is positive or negative, then P is on the y-axis.

vi) If b=0 and a is positive or negative, then P is on the x-axis.


Since we have: a=0, and 19 positive, then this point is on the y-axis.


Answer: y-axis
