Answer:

x = 5 or x = 2 or x = 0 or x = -3 thus 0 is the smallest root

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x (x - 5) (x - 2) (x + 3) = 0

Split into four equations:

x - 5 = 0 or x - 2 = 0 or x = 0 or x + 3 = 0

Add 5 to both sides:

x = 5 or x - 2 = 0 or x = 0 or x + 3 = 0

Add 2 to both sides:

x = 5 or x = 2 or x = 0 or x + 3 = 0

Subtract 3 from both sides:

Answer: x = 5 or x = 2 or x = 0 or x = -3

Answer:

D is the answer. The graph was reflected across the y-axis, and shifted 1 unit downwards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Count the number of spaces to D, then to D'. They are the same (besides one being negative). A'B'C'D' was then shifted down 1 unit, which is why it is lower than shape ABCD.

Answer:

5 pints per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Morning:

Given:

Number of strawberries packed in every 4 minutes = 3

∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute = $\frac{3}{4}$

So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes = $\frac{3}{4}\times 60=45$

1 hour = 60 minutes.

So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 45 pints per hour in the morning.

Afternoon:

Number of strawberries packed in every 3 minutes = 2

∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute = $\frac{2}{3}$

So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes = $\frac{2}{3}\times 60=40$

1 hour = 60 minutes.

So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 40 pints per hour in the afternoon.

Difference between the packing rates is given as:

Morning rate - Afternoon rate = 45 - 40 = 5 pints per hour.

So, she packed 5 more pints in one hour in the morning than in the afternoon.
