Answer:

Two zeros are 17 and -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x) = x² - 12x - 85

Find:

Zeros of the function

Computation:

f(x) = x² - 12x - 85

f(x) = x² - (17 - 5)x - 85

f(x) = x² - 17x + 5x - 85

f(x) = x(x - 17) + 5(x - 17)

f(x) = (x - 17) (x + 5)

So,

x - 17 = 0 , x + 5 = 0

So,

x = 17 , x = -5

Two zeros are 17 and -5

If the spinner is spun twice, what is the probability that the spinner will stop on a vowel then a consonant?

$\large\mathfrak\red{\underline{Step\:by\:step \:explanation}}$

$\dashrightarrow$ There are 2 (L and Z) consonants out of 6 letters.

$\\$

$\red\bigstar$ <u>The probability of getting a consonant </u>

$\pink\implies$ 2/6 = 1/3

$\\$

$:\red\implies$ When we spin the spinner second time, we will get the same probability

= 2/6 = 1/3

$\dashrightarrow$ The probability that the spinner will stop on a consonant then again on a consonant

= 1/3 x 1/3

= 1/9
