Answer:

Required number of cartons to be ordered = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of peoples for which the breakfast is being hosted = 25

The grocery store sells the eggs in cartons.

Number of people fed using one carton = 4

And, we need to find number of cartons which is to be ordered to ensure each guest receives serving.

4 peoples are served using one carton.

\implies \text{1 people is served by using }\frac{1}{4}\text{ cartons}\\\\\text{25 peoples are served using }\frac{1}{4}\times 25=6.25\text{ cartons}

Since, Cartons cannot be ordered in decimals so number of cartons that must be ordered to ensure each guest a serving is 7

Hence, Required number of cartons to be ordered = 7

To determine the number of cartons to buy, we simply divide the total number of people to be fed to the number of people that can be fed per one carton of eggs. We do as follows:

Number of carton of eggs = 25 people / 4 people/carton
Number of carton of eggs = 6.25 carton

It would be rounded of to 7 cartons since we cannot buy only 1/4 of a carton.

Write a polynomial function of least degree with integral coefficients that have the given zeros.
RideAnS [48]

Using the Factor Theorem, it is found that the polynomial function is given by:

  • f(x) = a(x^4 - 3x^3 - x^2 - 27x - 90), in which a is the leading coefficient.

<h3>Factor Theorem: </h3>
  • The Factor Theorem states that a polynomial function with roots x_1, x_2, \codts, x_n is given by:

f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2) \cdots (x - x_n)

  • In which a is the leading coefficient.

In this problem, we have that there is a:

  • Zero at x = -2, hence x_1 = -2.
  • Zero at x = 5, hence x_2 = 5.
  • Zero at x = -3i, hence there also has to be a zero at it's conjugate x = 3i, hence x_3 = -3i, x_4 = 3i.

Then, the function is:

f(x) = a(x + 2)(x - 5)(x + 3i)(x - 3i)

f(x) = a(x^2 - 3x - 10)(x^2 + 9)

f(x) = a(x^4 - 3x^3 - x^2 - 27x - 90)

Solve for x: 1/5 (5x + 12) = 18
DENIUS [597]
Solution for 1/5(5x+12)=18 equation:
<span>x in (-oo:+oo)

(1/5)*(5*x+12) = 18 // - 18

(1/5)*(5*x+12)-18 = 0

1/5*(5*x+12)-18 = 0

1/5*(5*x+12)-18 = 0

x-78/5 = 0

x-78/5 = 0

x-78/5 = 0 // + 78/5

x = 78/5

x = 78/5
