Answer:

-\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

A root with square root or under root is only obtained when we take the square root of both sides. Remember that when we take a square root, there are two possible answers:

  • One answer with positive square root
  • One answer with negative square root

For example, for the equation:

x^{2}=3

If we take the square root of both sides, the answers will be:

x=\sqrt{3} \text{ or } x= -\sqrt{3}

Only getting one solution with square root is not possible. Solutions with square root always occur in pairs.

For given case, the roots are 6 and \sqrt{5}. Therefore, the 3rd root of the polynomial function f(x) had to be -\sqrt{5}

It seems you made error while writing option B, it should be - square root of 5.

Answer:

\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{7}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction is the equivalent of ...

\dfrac{1}{12}{(3x-7)

and the distributive property applies.

=\dfrac{1}{12}(3x)-\dfrac{1}{12}(7)\\\\=\dfrac{3\cdot x}{3\cdot 4}-\dfrac{7}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{7}{12}

It's not compounded interest, you just get $3.20 every year.
$100 * 0.032 = $3.20
