As per Descartes Theorem, a polynomial of degree n (n is the highest exponent of a polynomial) has n roots (or number of zeros) be it positive, negative, real or complex.
in f(x) = x⁶ + x⁵ + x⁴ + 4x³ − 12x² + 12, the highest degree is 6, then it has
a total of 6 zeros, positive, negative, real or complex.
Answer: he invested $46062.5 at 6% and $23031.25 at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 6% interest.
Let y represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 10% interest.
He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky.. This means that
x = 2y
The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as
I = PRT/100
Considering the account paying 6% interest,
P = $x
T = 1 year
R = 6℅
I = (x × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.06x
Considering the account paying 10% interest,
P = $y
T = 1 year
R = 10℅
I = (y × 10 × 1)/100 = 0.1y
His annual interest is $7370dollars. it means that
0.06x + 0.2y = 7370 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 2y into equation 1, it becomes
0.06 × 2y + 0.2y = 7370
0.12y + 0.2y = 7370
0.32y = 7370
y = 7370/0.32
y = $23031.25
x = 2 × 23031.25
x = 46062.5
Answer:
B has a smaller initial population of 500
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for complete question
Required
The bacteria with the smaller initial population
The initial population is at x = 0
For bacteria A;
when 
For bacteria B, we have:
Substitute 0 for x
So; when x = 0
and
Because; 500 < 600
We can conclude that B has a smaller initial population of 500
