According to the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, the number of zeros or roots of the equation is equal to the highest degree among the terms. So with the given real roots 4, and -8 <span>the order should be 2 or a binomial. We expound (x-4) * (x+8) to give </span><span> x2 + 4x - 32 = 0</span>
Anything between the decimal and last non-zero digit
so 00025 are significant
the 0 in front is insignificant because it could be
00000.00025
zeroes after the 25 don't matter becasue it could be
0.000250000000 and it wouldn't change
the sig figs are 00025
Sam is using an industrial kitchen to make several batches of his famous chocolate chip granola bars. He needs to weight out 78 ounces of chocolate chips, plus or minus 2.5 ounces. The equation that can be used to find the minimum or maximum amount,c, of chocolate chips that he can weigh out is-
Absolute value equation is = |c-2.5| = 78
He used 53 pounds. I got this by using two equations.
a+b=117
and
5.8a+4.1b= 569.8
I took the first equation and subtracted 'b' so the equation looked like a=117-b.
I then plugged in 117-b into the second equation, so it ended up looking like this:
5.8 (117-b)=569.8
5.8 times 117 is 678.6. And 5.8 times negative b is negative 5.8b.
The equation now looks like this:
678.6-5.8b+4.1b=569.8
Add like terms
678.6-1.7b=569.8
Then subtract 678.6 from both sides
-1.7b= -108.8
divide each side by -1.7
you get b= 64.
But because you are looking for how many pounds for a, subtract 64 from 117. You get 53. 53 is the answer.
