Given:
Polynomial 
To find:
The values of x.
Solution:

Quadratic equation formula:

Here
.
Substitute the values in the formula, we get




Option E and option F are the roots of the polynomial.
The values of x are
.
ABCD is square so AB = BC = CD = AD
10 - x = x - 8 so x= 9 then AD will be 1yd, i guess im not sure bc i dunno the 2x-17 for :((
Ok
first of all, for q(x)/p(x)
if the degree of q(x) is less than the degree of p(x),then the horizontal assemtote is 0
then simplify
any factors you factored out is now a hole, remember them
to find the vertical assemtotes of a function, set the SIMPLIFIED denomenator equal to 0 and solve
so
y=(x-5)/(x^2-1)
q(x)<p(x)
horizontal assemtote is y=0
no factors to simplify so no holes
set denomenator to 0 to find vertical assemtote
x^2-1=0
(x-1)(x+1)=0
x-1=0
x=1
x+1=0
x=-1
the horizontal assemtotes are x=1 and -1
Answer:
D 540 oranges is the answer
