The number of positive roots is the number of changes of signs there are, then decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0
negative roots, sub every x with -x and reevaluate, count change of signs
decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0
y=+2x⁵-x⁴-2x³+4x²+x-2
+,-,-,+,+,-
1 2 3
3 or 1 positive roots
replace x with -x ( baically flip all signs of odd powerd numbers)
y=-2x⁵-x⁴+2x³+4x²-x-2
-,-,+,+,-,-
1 2
2 or 0 negative roots
3 or 1 positive roots
2 or 0 negative roots
2nd option is answer
Answer:
The price of the cake is $24 and the price of the Pie is $15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
<em>Represent price of Cake with C and Price of Pie with P</em>
Cakes sold = 8
Pies sold = 14
Required
Determine C and P
To represent the cakes and pies sold, we have the following expression
Substitute 9 + P for C
Open the bracket
Collect Like Terms
Divide both sides by 22
Recall that
<em>Hence, the price of the cake is $24 and the price of the Pie is $15</em>
Answer:
im pretty sure its b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, rearrange the terms of this equation to y=mx+b form, where m is the slope.
Original equation: 5x-y=2
Subtract 5x to both sides: -y = -5x+2
Multiply both sides by -1: y = 5x-2\
This gives us the slope, which is equal to 5.
