The error is that the numbers are not in order from least to greatest.
To find the median of data you need to first put the numbers in order from least to greatest.
To find the zeros of this function, we must first set the entire function equal to 0
f(x) = x² - 2x - 15 = 0
Since this is a quadratic function, we must use the quadratic formula, which is:

Let's assign a, b, and c using our first function
x² means a = 1 (because it could be written as 1x²)
-2x means b = -2
-15 means c = -15
Now let's plug those in:

which simplifies to:

Simplified further:


And divide it by the 2 on the bottom gives us:

2+4 = 6
2-4 = -2
So the zeros of this function are
-2 and
6
Answer:
If he has 45% of his cheak remaining we already have the remaining so we just to turn it into a fraction
First we put it over 100
<u>45</u>
100
Then we reduce it to the lowest terms
which would be
9/20
