Given:

The function is:

f(x)=10x^5+8x^4-15x^3+2x^2-2

To find:

All the possible rational zeros for the given function by using the Rational Zero Theorem.

Solution:

According to the rational root theorem, all the rational roots are of the form \dfrac{p}{q},q\neq 0, where p is a factor of constant term and q is a factor of leading coefficient.

We have,

f(x)=10x^5+8x^4-15x^3+2x^2-2

Here,

Constant term = -2

Leading coefficient = 10

Factors of -2 are ±1, ±2.

Factors of 10 are ±1, ±2, ±5, ±10.

Using the rational root theorem, all the possible rational roots are:

x=\pm 1,\pm 2,\pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm \dfrac{1}{5},\pm \dfrac{2}{5},\pm \dfrac{1}{10}.

Therefore, all the possible rational roots of the given function are \pm 1,\pm 2,\pm \dfrac{1}{2}, \pm \dfrac{1}{5},\pm \dfrac{2}{5},\pm \dfrac{1}{10}.

the ratio of manjo juice to guava juice in paradise punch is 5 to 3. Leilani has 32 fl oz of manjo juice. how much guava juice d
rodikova [14]

Originally the ratio is 5:3, but we can make this ration 5x:3x because its equal. By doing so, we know that 5x+3x=32.

Now just solve the equation:

5x+3x=32

8x=32

x=4.

Now insert x into ratio.

Since she needs 3x of guava juice, she needs 3*4 fl oz of guava juice. She need 12 fl oz of guava juice.

Answer:

12 FL OZ of guava juice.

I am having trouble solving for Y. I solved for X in the second equation, but I cannot seem to figure it out by substituting for
kumpel [21]
X - 2y = -10 -->   x = 2y -10

3x + 5y = 25 --> 3(2y-10) + 5y = 25 --> 11y - 30 = 25 --> 11y = 55 --> y = 5

x = 2y -10 --> x = 2(5) -10 --> x =10 -10 --> x =0

Answer:

The equation for finding the hypotenuse is:

c^2+c^2=h^2

For example, in the first exercise:

8^2+10^2=164^2

For clearing the equation, find out the root of 164=

12.8

Hypotenuse of the first triangle is 12.8!

Let me help you with the next, if you still dont get it:

8^2+13^2=233^2

Root of 233: 15.2

Hypotenuse of second triangle is 15.2!
