Let's explore possible case scenarios.

---------------------

Case A) Each person gets a rose and a daisy (2 flowers per person)

In this case, Jackie can make 2 such arrangements because she has 2 roses. We have 2 left over daisies.

---------------------

Case B) Each person gets a rose only (1 flower per person)

Only two arrangements are possible for the same reason as case A. In this situation, we have 4 left over daisies.

----------------------

Case C) Each person gets a daisy only (1 flower per person)

We have 4 arrangements possible because we have 4 daisies. The left over flowers are the 2 roses.

-----------------------

Case D) Each person gets 2 roses

Only one such arrangement is possible, so this only applies to one person really. You can say that 2/2 = 1. We have 4 left over daisies in this case.

-----------------------

Case E) Each person gets 2 daisies

Since 4/2 = 2, this means we can make 2 arrangements. There are 2 left over roses.

------------------------

Case F) Each person gets 2 daisies and 1 rose

We can see that 4/2 = 2 and 2/2 = 1, meaning that we can make at most 2 arrangements here. There are no leftovers. In contrast, the other cases do have leftovers of some kind.

------------------------

In short, you can do trial and error to see which case works to fit the conditions your teacher set. Case F is what we go for to have each flower bouquet consist of 2 daisies and 1 rose. We'll get 2 bouquets possible. Notice how cases A through E have at least one left over flower (either of one kind or both types), while case F has no leftovers.

Find an upper limit for the zeroes 2x^4 -7x^3 + 4x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0
erik [133]

<u>Answer-</u>

2 is the upper limit for the zeros.

<u>Solution-</u>

The given function f(x) is,

2x^4 -7x^3 + 4x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0

For calculating the zeros,

\Rightarrow f(x)=0

\Rightarrow 2x^4 -7x^3 + 4x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0

\Rightarrow 2x^4-4x^3-3x^3+6x^2-2x^2+ 4x+3x-6=0

\Rightarrow 2x^3(x-2)-3x^2(x-2)-2x(x-2)+3(x-2)=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(2x^3-3x^2-2x+3)=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x^2(2x-3)-1(2x-3))=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x^2-1)(2x-3)=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x+1)(x-1)(2x-3)=0

\Rightarrow x-2=0,\ x+1=0,\ x-1=0,\ 2x-3=0

\Rightarrow x=2,\ x=-1,\ x=1,\ x=\frac{3}{2}

From all the 4 roots, it can be obtained that 2 is the greatest zero.

3 friends are selling items at a bake sale. May makes $23.25 selling bread. Inez sells gift baskets and make 100 times as much a
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

May: $23.25

Inez: $2325

Jo: $232.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Inez makes 100 times as much as May. Since May makes $23.25, move the decimal point two places to the right to multiply the number by 100. You will get $2325. Jo makes 1/10 of the money Inez makes. Pretend there is a decimal point at the end of 2325. Move the decimal point one place to the left to divide by 10. You will get $232.5.

Circle d has a radius of 21 millimeters and central angle, ∠edf, which measures 60°. find the exact length of . mm 7mm 14mm 42mm
maria [59]
The length of an arc length can be calculated using the formula:
s = ra
where s is the lenght of the arc
and r is the radius of the circle
a is the central angle in radians

first converts degrees to radians
a = 60 ( pi / 180)
a = pi /3 =1.05

s = 21(1.05)
s = 22 mm is the length of the arc
