If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:

20/x = 40/100

20/x = 4/10

20/x = 2/5

x = 50.

Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.

What are the zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = x3 − 2x2 − 24x?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

x = 0, x = -4, and x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros of this polynomial, we can begin by factoring out a common factor of each term. 'x' is a common factor. We can distribute this variable out, giving us:

f(x) = x(x²- 2x- 24)

Now, factor the polynomial inside of the parenthesis into its simplest form. Factors of -24 that add up to -2 are -4 and 6.

f(x) = x( x + 4) (x - 6)

From this, we can derive the zeros x = 0, x = -4 and x = 6.

Find the next two terms of the following sequence: 14, 38, 74, 122, 182, 254...
Bezzdna [24]
Let's find the difference between each number.
38-14=24
74-38=36
122-74=48
182-122=60
254-182=72
As you can tell, you're adding 12 to each difference before. The next difference would be 72+12=84. Let's add.
254+84=338
Now the next difference would be 84+12=96.
338+96=434
So, the next two terms are 338 and 434.
