Six times a number is greater than 20 more than that number. What are the possible values of that number?

1 answer:

8 0

X > 4

Suppose that x is some number so 6 times a number is 6*x. 20 more than that number is 20 + x. If you put it together the inequality would be 6x > 20 + x. Subtracting x from both sides would result in 5x > 20. Dividing by 5 gives you x > 4 which is the final answer. So the possible values of that number is anything greater than 4.

A polynomial function can be written as (x + 1)(x + 4)(x – 7). What are the x-intercepts of the graph of this function?

Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7)

To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is

(x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 7) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

x- intercepts are (- 1, 0 ), (- 4, 0 ), (7, 0 )

What is the zeros of the quadratic function y=x^2+14x+24

777dan777 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 14x + 24 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} + 12x + 2x + 24 = 0 \\ x(x + 12) + 2(x + 12) = 0 \\ (x + 12)(x + 2) = 0\\ x = - 12 \\ x = - 2$
