The last answer: 2 or 0
Explanation:
When you graph this function, it crosses the x-axis once. In other words, that means there is only 1 real zero and 2 imaginary complex zeros. In addition, imaginary solutions always come in pairs, so there can’t be a odd number of them such as 3.
Answer:
0,-11
Step-by-step explanation:
-p^2 − 11p = 0
Factor out -p
-p( p+11) =0
Using the zero product property
-p =0 p+11 =0
p =0 p = -11
Answer: you bought 9 burgers and 16 tacos
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of burgers that you bought.
Let y represent the number of tacos that you bought.
You buy a total of 25 burgers and tacos. It means that
x + y = 25
The burgers cost $3.50 each and the tacos cost $2.25 each. The total cost of the burgers and tacos that you bought is $67.50. It means that
3.5x + 2.25y = 67.5- - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 25 - y into 1, it becomes
3.5(25 - y) + 2.25y = 67.5
87.5 - 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5
- 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5 - 87.5
- 1.25y = - 20
y = - 20/ - 1.25
y = 16
x = 25 - y = 25 - 16
x = 9
