Answer:
2/3 can't be divided because it's in its lowest form so you can reduce it
Answer: 10, 11, & 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the age of the youngest child.
Their ages are consecutive so,
Youngest: x
Middle: x + 1
Oldest: x + 2
The age of the Youngest squared (x²) equals 8 times the Oldest [8(x + 2)] plus 4.
x² = 8(x + 2) + 4
x² = 8x + 16 + 4
x² = 8x + 20
x² - 8x - 20 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 2) = 0
x - 10 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
x = 10 or x = -2
Since age cannot be negative, x = -2 is not valid
So, the Youngest (x) is 10
the Middle (x + 1) is 11
and the Oldest (x + 2) is 12
Quartic is 4th degree
the factors of an equation with roots r1,r2 is
(x-r1)(x-r2)
4th degree
it could be
(x-r1)¹(x-r2)³ or
(x-r1)²(x-r2)² or
(x-r1)³(x-r2)¹
roots or zeroes at x=-1 and x=-2
(x-(-1)) and (x-(-2))
(x+1) and (x+2)
the function could be factored into
(x+1)¹(x+2)³ or
(x+1)²(x+2)² or
(x+1)³(x+2)¹
expanded would be
x⁴+7x³+18x²+20x+9 or
x⁴+6x³+13x²+12x+4 or
x⁴+5x³+9x²+7x+2
one of those is the answer
Answer:
y=-2/3x-3
