Answer:

x-int=-8, y-int=2,-4

Step-by-step explanation:

for the x-int

you set x to 0 then solve the equation to get -8

for the y-int

you set y(or in this case f(x)) to 0 then solve. You solve this by spilting this into 2 linear equations; x-2=0 and x+4=0, then you solve them both to get the two y-intercepts, 2 and -4

Drew jumped farther than all 4 students above but jumped shorter than 7 feet , 7 inches. How far could drew have jumped? Write s

<h3>The distance covered by Drew in long jump is either 7 ft 5 inches OR 7 ft 6 inches.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the needed table is attached for the reference.

Now, as we can see from the table:

The distance covered by Cindy = 2 yards, 1 foot 3 inches

The distance covered by Tyrette = 7 feet, 2 inches

The distance covered by Nina = 2 yards, 1 foot, 1 inch

The distance covered by Monique = 7 feet, 4 inches

As we know : 1 yard = 3 feet

So, the distance covered by :

Cindy = 2 yards, 1 foot 3 inches = 3 ft x (2) + 1 ft + 3 in = 7 ft 3 in

Tyrette = 7 feet, 2 inches

Nina = 2 yards, 1 foot, 1 inch = = 3 ft x (2) + 1 ft + 1 in = 7 ft 1 in

Monique = 7 feet, 4 inches

So by comparing all distances, we can see that:

The maximum distances jumped by all four is 7 ft 4 inches.

The distance covered by Drew is less than 7 ft 7 in.

So, he must have jumped 7 ft 5 inches OR 7 ft 6 inches.

Hence, the distance covered by Drew in long jump is either 7 ft 5 inches OR 7 ft 6 inches.

Find a quadratic polynomial the sum and product of whose zeroes are -8 and 12 respectively. Hence find the zeroes.

Olenka [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow the sum and the product of the zeroes of this quadratic polynomial

Here is a trick :

when we khow the sum S and the product P ofvtwo numbers we can find them by solving :

x²-Sx+p=0

here S= -8 and P=12

so:

x²+8x+12=0

Let Δ be the discrminant of this equation: a= 1 , b= 8 and c=12

Δ= 8²-4*12 =16

the zeros are:

(-8-4)/2= -6

(-8+4)/2 = -2

verify:

-6+(-2)= -8

-2*(-6)= 12

now the polynomial quadratic is:

(x+6)(x+2)
