One thing wrong is there is not closing parenthasees after x+1
and also, if you multiply it out, the answer is not 8x^2-8x-16 so the factored form given is worng

the real factored out form is 8(x-2)(x+1)
that person forgot the 8 in the front

For the given table of values for a polynomial function, where must the zeros of the function lie?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

A. Between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes of a function occur whenever a value of x returns zero. To predict where the zeroes lie, determine the interval(s) where the function crosses the x-axis. This occurs when either f(x) goes from a negative value to a positive value or vice versa.

From x=3.0 and x=3.5, the y-values go from 4.0 (positive) to -0.2 (negative), respectively. Therefore, there must be a zero in this interval.

From x=4.0 and x=4.5, the y-values go from -0.8 (negative) to 0.1 (positive), respectively. Therefore, there must also be a zero in this interval.

Thus, the zeros of this function occur between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5, leading to answer choice A.

Using the graph above, create a system of inequalities that only contains points B and C in the overlapping shaded regions. Expl
k0ka [10]

1. The system of inequality is

y < 1.5x - 3

y < -2x/3 + 4



2. A is (2,-3)

E is (3,1)

-3 < 1.5(2) - 4

-3 < -1

1 < -2(3)/3 + 4

1 < 2



3. You can graph the inequality and see which schools inside the zone. Schools C and B are the schools he is allowed to attend.



hope it helps

Which statement is true about the domain of y = 3(2^-x)? Explain.
SVEN [57.7K]
We want to determine the domain of {y=3 \cdot 2^{-x}=3 \cdot ({2^{-1}})^x=3 \cdot ({ \frac{1}{2}})^x

any function of the form y=f(x)=a \cdot b^x is called an "exponential function",
the only condition is that b is positive and different from 1, and a is a nonzero real number.

The domain of such functions is all real numbers.

That is for any x, the expression <span>3(2^-x) "makes sense".



Answer: </span><span>The domain is all real numbers</span>

The area of Taylor’s square bedroom is 256 feet squared, what is the length of any side wall in his bedroom?
MAXImum [283]
The length of one side of his bedroom would be 16 feet.

The formula for area of a square is length x width and all four sides of a square are equal in length.

In this case 16x16 is equal to 256
