Answer:Roots: 3;2;-1
Step-by-step explanation: i use horner's scheme for approximating the roots of polynomials
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
In this problem we have a exponential function of the form

where
y ----> represent the pool’s loss of water
x ----> the number of days
a is the initial value
a=25,700 gal
b ----> is the base
r=15%=15/100=0.15
b=(1-r)=1-0.15=0.85
The function is equal to

Answer:
y = 5x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
slope m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
= (-12 - 3) / (-1 - 2)
= (-12 - 3) / (-1 - 2)
= -15 / -3
m = 5
y-intercept using slope above and anyone point, let's use (-1, -12):
y = mx + b
-12 = 5(-1) + b
-12 = -5 + b
b = -7
Equation of line using m and b from above:
y = mx + b
y = 5x - 7
Answer:
The answer depends on what the problem really is.
f(1/2) = 8
or
f(1/2) = 4
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the problem as it was posted:
y = f(x) = 16x
Let x = 1/2
y = f(1/2) = 16(1/2) = 8
Perhaps the problem is this:

If x is an exponent of 16 and not a factor, then the answer is:
