Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

average is calculated as

average = $\frac{sum}{count}$

$\frac{sum}{2}$ = 13 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

sum of 2 eldest = 26

Then for the 4 children

average = $\frac{26+2+4}{4}$ = $\frac{32}{4}$ = 8

In the third degree polynomial function f(x) =x^3 + 4x, why are 2i and -2i zeros?

IgorC [24]

Answer:

We just need to evaluate and get f(2i)=0, f(-2i)=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $i^2=-1$ , then $i^3=i^2i=-i$ , and we can apply this when we evaluate $f(x) =x^3 + 4x$ for 2i and -2i.

First we have:

$f(2i) =(2i)^3 + 4(2i)=2^3i^3+8i=8(-i)+8i=0$

Which shows that 2i is a zero of f(x).

Then we have:

$f(-2i) =(-2i)^3 + 4(-2i)=(-2)^3i^3-8i=-8(-i)-8i=8i-8i=0$

Which shows that -2i is a zero of f(x).

The temperature of a pot of water was 180.3°F and it cooled at a rate of -2.5°F for a minute after 20 minutes what was the tempe

kykrilka [37]

Temperature after 20 minutes is found by multiplying-2.5 by 20 since it goes down by 2.5 degrees for one minute. -2.5 * 20 = -50. Adding this to 180.3 will give the temperature 130.3 degrees.
