Answer:

164 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Per the above details, we will require tiles along all the sides of the swimming pool ,hence the circumference of the pool is denoted as;

= 2(wide + long)

Wide = 30 feet

Long = 50 feet

Circumference = 2(30 + 50)

Circumference = 2(80)

Circumference = 160.

It means that minimum of 160 tiles of 1 ft length is required, however, we will also require tile on each of the corners(4), total equals

= 160 + 4

= 164 tiles

A total of 164 tiles are there surrounding the pool.

jeka94

Answer:

Zeroes : 1, 4 and -5.

Potential roots: \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

x^3-21x=-20

It can be written as

x^3+0x^2-21x+20=0

Splitting the middle terms, we get

x^3-x^2+x^2-x-20x+20=0

x^2(x-1)+x(x-1)-20(x-1)=0

(x-1)(x^2+x-20)=0

Splitting the middle terms, we get

(x-1)(x^2+5x-4x-20)=0

(x-1)(x(x+5)-4(x+5))=0

(x-1)(x+5)(x-4)=0

Using zero product property, we get

x-1=0\Rightarrow x=1

x-4=0\Rightarrow x=4

x+5=0\Rightarrow x=-5

Therefore, the zeroes of the equation are 1, 4 and -5.

According to rational root theorem, the potential root of the polynomial are

x=\dfrac{\text{Factor of constant}}{\text{Factor of leading coefficient}}

Constant = 20

Factors of constant ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20.

Leading coefficient= 1

Factors of leading coefficient ±1.

Therefore, the potential root of the polynomial are \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20.
