Answer:

The maximum number of turns is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

$f(x)=x^4-x^3+3x+1$

The degree of this polynomial is 4.

If the degree of a given polynomial is n, then the polynomial has at least n-1 turns.

Therefore the number of turns of this 4th degree polynomial is at least 3.

A total of 243 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student t

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

81 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Set up a system of equations

Since the adult tickets and student tickets add to 243, we can do

$a+s=243$

and the student tickets sold were 2x the adult tickets, we can do

$s=2a$

We can replace s in the first equation adding to 243 with 2a

$a+s(2a)=243\\3a=243\\$

Step 2:

Solve for a. We can divide both sides by 3.

$a=81$

Therefore, there were 81 adult tickets sold.

Step 3:

We can check our work! Since we learned earlier the student tickets are 2x adult tickets, we can multiply 81 by 2 and add that to 81 to see if it equals 243!

$s=2a\\s=2(81)\\s=162$

And...

$162+81=243$

So, 81 must be the answer!

Lightning strikes Earth 1000 times in 10 seconds. How many seconds does it take for lightning to strike 7250 times? It takes sec

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

1000 / 10 = 100 strikes per second. Now, multiply by 12 to find the number of strikes that occurred. 100 * 12 = 1200 strikes in 12 seconds. Part B: Divide the number of seconds to the number of lightning strikes to find the average rate. 10 / 1000 = 0.1 seconds per strike. Now, multiply by 7250 to find the number of seconds that passed.
