Answer:

x=2, x=-2, and x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Function: f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x+1)²

We can solve each one of the zeros by making the expressions (the ones in the parentheseis) equal zero.

So we have three equations:

1.(x-2)=0

2.(x+2)=0

3.(x+1)²=0

Solve.

1.x-2=0

x=2

2. x+2=0

x=-2

3. (x+1)²=(x+1)(x+1)=0

(x+1)=0

x=-1

(x+1)=0

x=-1

Since those two were the same we can just say x=-1 once.

Here are the three zeros:

x=2, x=-2, and x=-1

hope this helps!

Are 2 + 6x and 2(3x + 1) equivalent
Solnce55 [7]

✳︎ ✳︎ ✳︎ ✳︎ ✳︎ ✳︎ Hello There! :)

To determine whether the two expressions are equivalent, we take the second expression and distribute 2:

2(3x+1)

6x+2=2+6x

And now we know the two expressions are equivalent. If you look, you will remember the Commutative Property that states:

a+b=b+a

In this case, a=6x and b=2.

So we know that the two expressions are equivalent.

Hope this helps! :)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

10.875 total, 1.5 times each are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5 (1 1/2) x 1.5 = 2.25

0.5 (2/4) x 1.5 = 0.75

0.125 (1/8) x 1.5 = 1.875

4 x 1.5 = 6

2.25 + 0.75 + 1.875 + 6 = 10.875 total

Round to the nearest whole number.<br> 432.846
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: 433 of course

432 is the whole number and 846 is the decimal,

the number closest to the whole number is 8

we can only round the number forward if the number is 5 or more than 5 (6,7,8,9)

so 432.856 rounds to 433

How to convert 1/4 to decimal form. How do I start that ? I obviously know it’s .25 but how do I show work ?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

(1/4 x 1 ) = 0.25

or (1/4) x 1 = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We are doing the opposite to finding 25%

Which is 1/4 of 100%

We do this an opposite (not as inverse)

To find percentage increase as you can compare below.

or as percentage increase

230 x 0.25 (x 100) = 287.50  

Even though we are not finding increase for 1/4 by changing it to decimal form, this practice does use the (x1) element in brackets and does identify the distribution.
