Answer:
To get the x-intercepts of the function, f(x) = 4x2 – 24x + 20
It has to be equated to zero and the values of x are the x-intercepts. So,
4x2 – 24x + 20 = 0
The resulting equation is a quadratic equation which can be solved by different methods. The solution is
x = 5, 1
The average therefore is:
(1+5/)2 = 3
If the width of the cardboard = x cm then its length is given by x + 8 cm.
Then the length of the box will be x + 8 - 2(2) = x + 4
and the width = x - 2(2) = x - 4 cm The height is 2 cm
Volume = h*w*l = 2(x - 4)(x + 4) = 256
2(x^2 - 16) = 256
x^2 - 16 = 128
x^2 = 144
x = 12 cm
Dimensions of the box are:-
length = 12 + 4 = 16cm
width = 12 - 4 = 8 cm
height = 2 cm
P(x) = x-4
k(x-4) = 5(x-4) - 8 = 5x - 28
So the answer is 2
Final result : -3

3.1 Dividing fractions
To divide fractions, write the divison as multiplication by the reciprocal of the divisor :
a - 3 3 - a a - 3 21 ————— ÷ ————— = ————— • ——————— 7 21 7 (3 - a)
3.2 Rewrite (3-a) as (-1) • (a-3) Canceling Out : 3.3 Cancel out (a-3) which now appears on both sides of the fraction line.
Final result : -3
