Answer:

128 hamburgers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jon is making hamburgers for a church lunch.

He is using $\frac{1}{3}$ pound of beef in one hamburger.

He has the total amount of beef = $42\frac{2}{3}$ pounds

= $\frac{128}{3}$

Since in one hamburger he use beef = $\frac{1}{3}$ pound

$\frac{128}{3}$ pounds of ground beef is used in = $\frac{\frac{128}{3} }{\frac{1}{3} }$

= $\frac{128}{3}$ × $\frac{3}{1}$

= $\frac{384}{3}$

= 128 hamburgers

Jon can make 128 hamburgers using all the ground beef.

Factor f(x) = 15x^3 - 15x^2 - 90x completely and determine the exact value(s) of the zero(s) and enter them as a comma separated

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$x=-2,0,3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function $f(x)=15x^3-15x^2-90x$ . We are asked to find the zeros of our given function.

To find the zeros of our given function, we will equate our given function by 0 as shown below:

$15x^3-15x^2-90x=0$

Now, we will factor our equation. We can see that all terms of our equation a common factor that is $15x$ .

Upon factoring out $15x$ , we will get:

$15x(x^2-x-6)=0$

Now, we will split the middle term of our equation into parts, whose sum is $-1$ and whose product is $-6$ . We know such two numbers are $-3\text{ and }2$ .

$15x(x^2-3x+2x-6)=0$

$15x((x^2-3x)+(2x-6))=0$

$15x(x(x-3)+2(x-3))=0$

$15x(x-3)(x+2)=0$

Now, we will use zero product property to find the zeros of our given function.

$15x=0\text{ (or) }(x-3)=0\text{ (or) }(x+2)=0$

$15x=0\text{ (or) }x-3=0\text{ (or) }x+2=0$

$\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{0}{15}\text{ (or) }x-3=0\text{ (or) }x+2=0$

$x=0\text{ (or) }x=3\text{ (or) }x=-2$

Therefore, the zeros of our given function are $x=-2,0,3$ .
