Answer:

Speed of the bus = 50 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between Seattle to Portland = 175 miles.

Duration of trip = 3.5 hours

We need to find speed, we have

Distance traveled = Speed x Time

$\texttt{Speed = }\frac{\texttt{Distance traveled}}{\texttt{Time}}=\frac{175}{3.5}=50mph$

Speed of the bus = 50 miles per hour

What are the zeros of the function? h(x)=x^3−2x^2−3x

maksim [4K]

To find the zeroes you make the function equal to zero and then solve.
$0=x^3-2x^2-3x$
Then factor out the x to get a quadratic inside the parentheses.
$0=x(x^2-2x-3)$
Factor the inside quadratic formula.
$x(x^2-2x-3)=x((x-3)(x+1))$
Lastly, use the zero product property to solve.
$x*(x-3)*(x+1)=0$
$x=0,x=3,x=-1$

Answer:

Since the value of f(0) is negative and the value of f(1) is positive, then there is at least one value of x between 0 and 1 for which f(x) =0.
