larisa [96]

Answer:

a) $2.75

b) $2.2

c) Second tomato option is better value option.

Step-by-step explanation:

First option to buy tomatoes = $2.75 per pound

Second option to buy tomatoes:

To buy a box which is a 5 pound box and the price is $11.

To find:

a) Unit price for the first tomato option.

b) Unit price for the second tomato option.

c) Better value option on the basis of price.

Solution:

Let the consider the unit here to be a pound.

So, we will find the price of tomato per pound to find the unit price of tomato.

a) Unit price of the first tomato option is : $2.75 per pound

b) Unit price of the second tomato option:

Price for 5 pounds = $11

Dividing both sides with 5 to find the price of 1 pound or unit price.

Price for $\frac{5}{5}$ = 1 pound = $\frac{\$11}5 = \$2.2$

c) To find the better value option, we can compare the unit prices of the two tomato options.

Here, we have the two tomato options with unit prices as:

$2.75 and $2.2

Second tomato option has a lower unit price, therefore, <em>second option</em> is better value option on the basis of price.

Glen is planting square flower gardens surrounding a triangular fishpond as shown. If the sides of the triangular fishpond are 5

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

$h=\sqrt{106} \approx 10.3$ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this. Which states that:

One Length^2 + Another Length^2 = Hypotenuse^2

We can take one length as 5 ft and another length as 9 ft and we call the hypotenuse "h", so we have:

$5^2+9^2=h^2$

Now, let us solve for "h":

$5^2+9^2=h^2\\25 + 81 = h^2\\106=h^2\\h=\sqrt{106} \approx 10.3$

The pond's hypotenuse is about 10.3 feet

Given the roots 2, -3, 4 that has to pass through the point (1, 10). What type of polynomial is this?

Vladimir79 [104]

The polynomial passes through the point (1, 10), and having the roots 2, -3, and 4 is a cubic polynomial.

<h3>What is a polynomial?</h3>

A polynomial is a mathematical expression made up of coefficients and indeterminates that uses only the operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, and powers of positive integers of the variables.

The polynomial having the highest power of 3 is called the cubic polynomial.

Given that the roots 2, -3, and 4 that has to pass through the point (1, 10).

The polynomial will be written as,

Y = (x-2)(x+3)(x-4)

Y = x³+x²-6x-4x²-4x=24

Y = x³-3x²-10x+24

Therefore, the polynomial passes through the point (1, 10), and having the roots 2, -3, and 4 is a cubic polynomial.
