-3 • (5x + 2y = 7)
-15x - 6y = -21
-2x + 6y = 9
__________
-17x = -12
x = 12/17
5(12/17) + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 60/17
2y = 3.47
y = 1.735
Answer: b = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem
A square + B square = C square
C square - A square = B square
C square - B square = A square
10 - 6 = b --Square it
100 - 36 = 64 (square root)
64 = 8
b = 8 miles
A. C is on the bottom, Bis on the left
Answer:

Given:

Step-by-step explanation:
Property used: <em>An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite int</em><em>e</em><em>rior angles.</em>
<em>
</em>
A. True. We see this by taking the highest order term in each factor:

B. True. Again we look at the leading term's degree and coefficient. f(x) behaves like -3x⁶ when x gets large. The degree is even, so as x goes to either ± ∞, x⁶ will make it positive, but multiplying by -3 will make it negative. So on both sides f(x) approaches -∞.
C. False. f(x) = 0 only for x=0, x = 5, and x = -2.
D. False. Part of this we know from the end behavior discussed in part B. On any closed interval, every polynomial is bounded, so that for any x in [-2, 5], f(x) cannot attain every positive real number.
E. True. x = 0 is a root, so f(0) = 0 and the graph of f(x) passes through (0, 0).
F. False. (0, 2) corresponds to x = 0 and f(x) = 2. But f(0) = 0 ≠ 2.
