A polynomlal has been factored, as SHOWI Deluw.

Tom [10]

Answer:

The zeros are 6,-5,9

Step-by-step explanation:

The factored form of the polynomial is given as:

$f(x) = (x - 6)(x + 5)(x - 9)$

To find the zeros of this function, we set f(x)=0 and solve for x.

$(x - 6)(x + 5)(x - 9) = 0$

This implies that:

$(x - 6) = 0 \: or \: (x + 5) = 0 \: or \: (x - 9) = 0$

We solve for x to get:

$x = 6 \: or \: x = - 5 \: or \: x = 9$

The zeros are 6,-5,9

Pie

Consider number 17. You know that

17=9+8.

Then for negative numbers you have the same rule (with respect to sign -):

-17=(-9)+(-8).

Since (-9)+9=9+(-9)=9-9=0, you have that

-17+9=(-9)+(-8)+9=(-9+9)+(-8)=0+(-8)=-8.

Answer: -17=(-9)+(-8).

kvasek [131]

I feel it should be 30 because x represents the number of lessons, and 30 is multiplied by that.
