Is it -10? Because -8 to 16 is multiplying by -2, so 5 x -2 = -10. I'm not sure though because I don't know exactly what 'varies directly' means.

The answer would be ×=-10. Because 2y would be equal to 2x. 2x= (-5*2)

Tamika has two bags of trail mix. Each has a combination of 60 pieces of fruit and nuts. Ratio of fruit to nuts in the first bag

madam [21]

Answer:

the second bag because the ratio is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Bag1

fruits 3 : 5 nuts so 3+5=8 and 60/8=7.5 but 7.5*3=22.5

ratio is 3/5=0.428

Bag2

fruits 7 : 10 nuts so 10+7=17 and (60/17)*7 ≈ 24.7

ratio is 7/10=0.7

Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has rational coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and the zeros 4 and 3−

Neko [114]

Answer:

$P(x) = x^3 - 10x^2+ 34x-40$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p =1$ -- Leading coefficient

$Zeros: 4\ and\ 3 - i$

Required

Determine the polynomial

Represent the zeros with a and b

Such that

$a = 4$

$b = 3 - i$

The polynomial is:

$P(x) = p * (x - a) * (x - b)$

$P(x) = 1 * (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))$

However, to solve further: We need to symmetrise over 3-i and its conjugate

$P(x) = 1 * (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))* (x - (3 + i))$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * (x - (3 - i))* (x - (3 + i))\\\\$

To define a suitable function, the expression becomes

$P(x) = (x - 4) * ((x - 3)^2+1)$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * ((x - 3)(x - 3)+1)$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * (x^2 - 6x + 9+1)$

$P(x) = (x - 4) * (x^2 - 6x +10)$

Open bracket

$P(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 +10x - 4x^2 + 24x-40$

$P(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 - 4x^2+10x + 24x-40$

$P(x) = x^3 - 10x^2+ 34x-40$
