Answer:Mark Is 9 years old; Christine is 5 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Present age

LET  mark age be x

Christine be x-4 yrs

In 3 yrs Time

Mark will be x+3 yrs old

Christine  will be  (x -4 +3) = x-1 years old

Also, In 3 years time

Christine  = 2/3 Mark

such that

  x-1 = 2/3(x+3)

  x -1= 2x+6 / 3

    3x  -3= 2x+6

      3X--2X = 6+3

         =X=9

Mark Is 9 years old

Christine is   x -4 = 9-4=5 years old

Without using a calculator, determine the number of real zeros of the function
kumpel [21]

The number of real zeros of the function f(x) = x3 + 4x2 + x − 6 is 3

<h3>How to determine the number of real zeros?</h3>

The equation of the function is given as:

f(x) = x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6

Expand the function

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 - x^2 + 6x - 5x - 6

Reorder the terms

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 + 6x - x^2 - 5x - 6

Factor the expression

f(x) = x(x^2 + 5x + 6) -1(x^2 + 5x + 6)

Factor out x -1

f(x) = (x^2 + 5x + 6)(x -1)

Expand

f(x) = (x^2 + 3x + 2x + 6)(x -1)

Factorize

f(x) = [x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)](x - 1)

Factor out x + 2

f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 2)(x- 1)

The function has been completely factored and it has 3 linear factors

Hence, the number of real zeros of the function f(x) = x3 + 4x2 + x − 6 is 3

Which of the following is a true statement? (round to the nearest tenth as needed) If -2 + v = 16, then v = 14 If -2 + v = 16, t
rosijanka [135]
In the first statement, it is false. -2+14 would not add up to 16.
In the third statement, it is false. -8+-2 would not add up to 16.
In the fourth statement, it is false. -2-14 would not add up to 16.
So the second statement is true -2+18=16.
