So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age

k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m

sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24

so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16

katie=16
mara=8

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2+5x+3=180 (angles on a straight line)

7x=180-5

7x=175

x=25 (dividing both sides by 7)

Consider the graph of the sixth-degree polynomial function f.
vekshin1

Answer:

b = 1, c = -1 and d = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question the rule of multiplicity of a polynomial is to be followed.

If the multiplicity of a polynomial is even at a point, graph of the polynomial will touch the x-axis.

If the multiplicity of the polynomial is odd, graph will cross the x-axis at that point.

From the graph of function 'f',

f(x) = (x - b)(x - c)²(x - d)³

Since, graph of the function 'f' crosses x-axis at x = 1 and x = 4, multiplicity will be odd and touches the x-axis at x = -1 multiplicity will be even.

So the function will be,

f(x) = (x - 1)[x - (-1)]²(x - 4)³

Therefore, b = 1, c = -1 and d = 4 will be the answer.
