Answer:

The zeros of the function are;

x = 0 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes of the function simply imply that we find the values of x for which the corresponding value of y is 0.

We let y be 0 in the given equation;

y = x^3 - 2x^2 + x

x^3 - 2x^2 + x = 0

We factor out x since x appears in each term on the Left Hand Side;

x ( x^2 - 2x + 1) = 0

This implies that either;

x = 0 or

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0

We can factorize the equation on the Left Hand Side by determining two numbers whose product is 1 and whose sum is -2. The two numbers by trial and error are found to be -1 and -1. We then replace the middle term by these two numbers;

x^2 -x -x +1 = 0

x(x-1) -1(x-1) = 0

(x-1)(x-1) = 0

x-1 = 0

x = 1

Therefore, the zeros of the function are;

x = 0 and x = 1

The graph of the function is as shown in the attachment below;

You have an initial amount of $55 in a savings account and you deposit an equal amount into your account each week. After 6 week
bonufazy [111]
Given:
initial deposit = 45
total deposit = 105
w = weekly deposit
x = no. of weeks = 5 weeks
y = amount in dollars
45 + 5w = 105
45 + 5w = 105
5w  = 105 - 45
5w =  60
w = 60/5
w = $12 weekly deposit.

y = $45 + $12x  
<span>x = (y - 45)/12

</span>To check:
y = 45 + 12(5)
y = 45 + 60
y = 105 total deposit in 5 weeks

x = (105-45)/12
x = 60/12
x = 5 weeks
