Answer:

Option D is correct .i.e., f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Roots of Polynomial are -5 and 1

To find: Polynomial function

We substitute given value of roots in each polynomial and check

if for both value polynomial given 0 then that our required polynomial

A). f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x + 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 + 5 ) ( -5 + 1 )

       = 0 × (-4) = 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 + 5 ) ( 1 + 1 )

     =  6 × 2 = 12 ≠ 0

Thus, It is not required polynomial

B). f(x) = ( x - 5 ) ( x - 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 - 5 ) ( -5 - 1 )

       = -10 × (-6) = 60 ≠ 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 - 5 ) ( 1 - 1 )

     =  -4 × 0 = 0

Thus, It is not required polynomial

C). f(x) = ( x - 5 ) ( x + 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 - 5 ) ( -5 + 1 )

       = -10 × (-4) = 40 ≠ 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 - 5 ) ( 1 + 1 )

     =  -4 × 2 = -8 ≠ 0

Thus, It is not required polynomial

D). f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 1 )

for x = -5

f(-5) = ( -5 + 5 ) ( -5 - 1 )

       = 0 × (-6) = 0

for x = 1

f(1) = ( 1 + 5 ) ( 1 - 1 )

     =  6 × 0 = 0

Thus, It is required polynomial

Therefore, Option D is correct .i.e., f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 1 )

A business with two locations buys seven large delivery trucks and five small delivery trucks. Location A receives three large t
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

cost of large delivery truck = $60,000

cost of small delivery truck = $45,000

Step-by-step explanation:

let,

the cost of large delivery truck = 'x'

the cost of small delivery truck = 'y'

Now, according to the question,

3x + 2y = 270000

4x + 3y = 375000

By solving the above 2 equation , we get;

x = 60000

y = 45000

satela [25.4K]
X= -3

2/3x-10=12

Step 1: Add 10 to both sides.

2/3x=-2

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 3/2.

x= -3
