Find all the zeros of f(x).

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vitek1552 [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The zeroes are -6, 1/2 and 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12 = 0

From the first and last coefficient 2 and 12, one guess for a zero is x = 2.

So substituting x = 2:

f(2) = 16+ 28 - 56 + 12 = 0

So x = 2 is a zero and x - 2 is a factor of f(x)

Performing long division:

x - 2)2x3 + 7x2 - 28x + 12( 2x2 + 11x - 6 <------- Quotient

       2x3  - 4x2

                 11x2 - 28x

                 11x2 - 22x

                          - 6x + 12

                           -6x + 12

                            .............

Now we solve

2x2 + 11x - 6 = 0

(2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0

2x - 1 = 0 or x + 6 = 0, so:

x = 1/2,  x = -6.

What is the area of a section of pavement that is 20 ft wide and 70 yd long?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

A = 4200 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the formula for area is

A = l*w

We need to have the same units

convert yd to ft

1 yd = 3ft

Multiply each by 70

70 yds = 210 ft

A = 210 *20

A = 4200 ft^2

Quadrilateral math is a parallelogram. the area of math is _____.
Semmy [17]
The area of a parallelogram can be obtained by multiplying the length of the base by the height. Although no diagram is given, let us assume values of the base and height that would yield one of the choices as answers. Let us say that parallelogram MATH has the following values:

base = 6 m
height = 11 m

Area = base * height = 6 * 11
Area = 66 m^2

Therefore, the answer is B.
