Answer:

The zeros of the given function are -9,-1 and 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=x^3-2x^2-111x-108

It is given that the x-intercept of the graph is -9, therefore -9 is a zero of the function.

Since -9 is the zero of the function, therefore (x+9) is a factor of f(x). Use synthetics method or long division method to divide the function by (x+9).

f(x)=(x+9)(x^2-11x-12)=0

f(x)=(x+9)(x^2-12x+x-12)=0

f(x)=(x+9)(x(x-12)+(x-12))=0

f(x)=(x+9)(x-12)(x+1)=0

Use zero product property and quote each factor equal to 0.

x=-9,-1,12

Therefore zeros of the given function are -9,-1 and 12.

HELPPP!! Calculate the side lengths a and b to two decimal places. (there is a picture included)
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle ABC,

Sum of all interior angles = 180°

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

72° + 85° + m∠C = 180°

m∠C = 180 - 157

m∠C = 23°

By applying Sine rule in the triangle,

\frac{\text{SinA}}{a}=\frac{\text{SinB}}{b}=\frac{\text{SinC}}{c}

\frac{\text{Sin72}}{a}=\frac{\text{Sin85}}{b}=\frac{\text{Sin23}}{6.2}

\frac{\text{Sin72}}{a}=\frac{\text{Sin85}}{b}=0.06302

\frac{\text{Sin72}}{a}=0.06302

a = \frac{\text{Sin72}}{0.06302} = 15.09

\frac{\text{Sin85}}{b}=0.06302

b = \frac{\text{Sin85}}{0.06302}

b = 15.81

Therefore, option (D) will be the answer.
