Answer:

Jaime = 11

Sammy = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Sammy is eleven less than five times Jaime's age. Use parameter (S) to represent Sammy's age, and parameter (J) to represent Jaime's age. Form an equation based on this given information:

S = 5J - 11

It is given that the sum of the two girl's ages is (55), use an equation to represent this.

S + J = 55

Substitute in the expression for the value of (S) in terms of (J),

(5J - 11) + J = 55

Simplify,

6J - 11 = 55

Inverse operations,

6J - 11 = 55

6J = 66

J = 11

Backsolve for the value of (S), substitute in the value of (J) into the equation for (S) and solve,

S = 5(J) - 11

S = 5(11) -11

S = 55 - 11

S = 44

Help! Algebra!!!
balandron [24]
Thet contradict each other, that's why both of them are incorrect.
<span>Suppose that a polynomial has four roots: s, t, u, and v. If the polynomial were evaluated at any of these values, it would have to be zero. Therefore, the polynomial can be written in this form. 

p(x)(x - s)(x - t)(x - u)(x - v), where p(x) is some non-zero polynomial 

This polynomial has a degree of at least 4. It therefore cannot be cubic. 

Now prove Kelsey correct. We have already proved that there can be no more than three roots. To prove that a cubic polynomial with three roots is possible, all we have to do is offer a single example of that. This one will do. 

(x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3) 

This is a cubic polynomial with three roots, and four or more roots are not possible for a cubic polynomial. Kelsey is correct. 

Incidentally, if this is a roller coaster we are discussing, then a cubic polynomial is not such a good idea, either for a vertical curve or a horizontal curve. I hope this helps</span><span>

Identify the equation of the graph shown. A) y = 2x + 3 B) y = 2x - 3 C) y = -2x + 3 D) y = -2x - 3 4)
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The answers provided aren't reasonable for this graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph's y-intercept is -2, since that is the point where the line intersects the y-axis. The slope is 3x, because the distance from one point to the next is 3 up, 1 right. So the equation for the graph is y = 3x - 2.
