Answer:
y = (x - 2)(x + 4)(x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the zeros of a function say x = a and x = b, then
The factors are (x - a) and (x - b) and
y = (x - a)(x - b)
Given the zeros are x = 2, x = - 4, x = 1, then
the factors are (x - 2), (x - (- 4)) and (x - 1), that is
(x - 2), (x + 4), (x - 1) , thus
y = (x - 2)(x + 4)(x - 1)
Use subtraction the answer is 44
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest way is to substitute 8 for x in the first equation,
Remark
You cannot give an answer to this unless you are give the fastest speed of a swimmer. That stat is not an easy one to decide upon. At what distance for example or do you eliminate distance? Since this is a college level question, I don't think it unreasonable that you have to research raw distance over fastest time.
The fastest speed I can find is 100 meters in 46.91 seconds. That means that the actual speed of the swimmer is 100 meters / 46.91 = 2.132 meters / second.
Givens
Set up a proportion with the numbers found and given
Speed of ball / speed of swimmer = 21.12 / 1
Speed of ball = x
Solution
Speed of swimmer = 2.132 m/s
x / 2.132 = 21.12 / 1 Multiply Both sides by 2.132
x = 21.12 * 2.132 / 1
x = 45.02 m/s
Answer
45.02 m/s
