Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra states that the number of complex roots a polyomial has is equal to its highest exponent.  This is a squared polynomial; second degree; quadratic.  When it is factored, no matter what types of numbers you get as the solution, you will ALWAYS have 2 of them.  When this quadratic is factored, we get that x = 3 and x = 3.  That means that this is a quadratic that touches the x-axis at (3, 0).  It doesn't go through, it only touches.  We do have 2 roots, but since they're the same, we say we have a multiplicity 2 of that root.  The closest you'll come to that in your choices is A.  Apparently your text refers to multiplicity 2 as a double root.

A student performed the following steps to find the solution to the equation x^2 + 14x + 40 = 0. Where did the student go wrong?
Alja [10]

Answer:

A. in Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is factored correctly. Then separated into two smaller equations correctly. But in solving x + 10 = 0, there is an error.

x + 10 = 0

Add -10 to both sides.

x = -10

So, the error is in step 3.

the amount of military spending M (in billions of dollars) in the U.S. during year t is given approximately by the equation M=48
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

2008

Step-by-step explanation:

M = 48.81t + 304.30

M = 694.78                            Solve for t

694.78 = 48.81t + 304.30     Subtract 304.30 from each side

390.48 = 48.81t                    Divide each side by 48.81

t = 390.48/48.81  

t = 8.00 yr

=====

Year = 2000 + t

Year = 2000 + 8.00

Year = 2008

Military spending hit $694.78 billion at the end of 2008.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

b+5 ≥ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the additional bushes to be planted be represented by a variable b

Since Tamara already planted 5 bushes, 5 will be a constant in the inequality ;

So,

b+5 ≥ 12 will be the inequality used to find number of bushes.
