A polynomial has zeros of 7, 6. What is the minimum degree of the polynomial?

1 answer:

4 0

If the polynomial has zeros at 7 and 6 the equation will be
(X-7)(x-6)
When we distribute that we get
x^2-13x+42

A degree is the highest exponent of a polynomial. In this case the x^2. So the answer is 2

Complete the equation of the line through (3,-1)(3,−1)left parenthesis, 3, comma, minus, 1, right parenthesis and (4,7)(4,7)left

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: $y=8x-25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Line passes through $(3,-1)\ \text{ and}\ (4,7)$

Equation of line when it passes through two points $(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}$

Insert the values

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{7+1}{4-3}=\dfrac{y+1}{x-3}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8}{1}=\dfrac{y+1}{x-3}\\\\\Rightarrow 8x-24=y+1\\\Rightarrow y=8x-25$

The diagram represents the shape and dimensions of Kayla's garden. A special fertilizer is used for the vegetable garden. Each b

Serjik [45]

Answer:

B. 18 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to determine the area of the vegetable garden. The vegetable garden is a rectangle with the following dimensions:

L = 24 ft

W = 9 ft

The Formula for the area of a rectangle is:

$A = L\times W$

So let's solve it:

$A = L\timesW\\A = 24 ft\times9ft\\A= 216ft^{2}$

With that, we can figure out how many bags of fertilizer would be needed by dividing the area of the vegetable garden by how much one bag of fertilizer covers:

$\dfrac{214ft^2}{12ft^2/bag}=18\;bags$
