Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Our function is $f(x) =(x+4)^6(x+7)^5$ . Notice that our possible roots are when x + 4 = 0 and when x + 7 = 0. So, our roots are -4 and -7.

However, the power above x + 4 is even, meaning the graph will simply <em>touch</em> the x-axis at x = -4, but not pass through. The power above x + 7, though, is odd, which means the graph will <em>cross</em> the x-axis.

Thus, the answer is x = -7.

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x+4)⁶(x + 7)⁵

The roots are when f(x) = 0

(x+4)⁶ = 0

x = -4 (multiplicity 6)

(x+7)⁵ = 0

x = -7 (multiplicity 5)

The graph is tangential to the x-axis on roots with even multiplicity, crosses tge x-axis at roots with odd multiplicity

This graph cuts/crosses the x-axis at x = -7

Answer:

If im not incorrect the answer should be 5

Step-by-step explanation:

yes it is because look at it like this f(10)=50 so if u think what is 50 divided by 10 you will equal up to 5

A pan of lasagna cut into 100 servings is equally shared among a group of people. For Exercises

Volgvan

53). 100 servings / 20 people = (100/20) (svngs/ppl)

   = 5 servings per person.

   Each person gets 1/20 = 5% = 0.05 of the pan.

54). 100 servings / 40 people = (100/40) (svngs/ppl)

   = 2.5 servings per person.

   Each person gets 1/40 = 2.5% = 0.025 of the pan.

55). 100 servings / 30 people = (100/30) (svngs/ppl)

      = (3 and 1/3) servings per person.

   Each person gets 1/30 = (3 and 1/3) % = 0.0333... of the pan.

Answer:

sin(x) = $\frac{7}{25}$

x = 16.26°

Step-by-step explanation:

First use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse. Use $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ . Since we know a and b we can plug in to find c. When we plug in we get: $(7)^2 + (24)^2 = c^2$ . When we solve this out we get 25 = c.

Now that we know the value of c, we also know sin(x) = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ . Using this we see that sin(x) = $\frac{7}{25}$ .

To get the exact degree value of x, take the inverse sin of $\frac{7}{25}$ :

$sin^-1(\frac{7}{25})$ which gives us 16.26020° rounded to 16.26°
