What are the zeros of f(x)=x^2+x-20?

1 answer:

3 0

F(x) = x² + x - 20 = x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = x(x + 5) - 4(x + 5) = (x + 5)(x - 4)

f(x) = 0 ⇔ (x + 5)(x - 4) = 0 ⇔ x + 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -5 or x = 4

Answer: C. x = -5 and x = 4.

The number of cubic feet of water in a curved container can be approximated by v = 0.95h2.9. use a calculator to find the amount

Black_prince [1.1K]

V=0.95h^2.9
h=7.5 feet→V=0.95(7.5)^2.9
V=0.95(344.8876664)
V=327.6432830
Rounded to the nearest tenth:
V=327.6 cubic feet

A classmate says that the expression -5r(6s) can be expanded to - 30r - 5rs. Explain his error

morpeh [17]

-5r(6s) would be -30rs because everything outside of the parentheses must be multiplied by everything inside the parentheses. -5r times 6s would be -30rs because -5 times 6 is thirty and when combining variables for an answer you would get rs whicg combine for -30rs
