Given that <span>Jack rakes the yard in 5 hours and Jill rakes the yeard in 8 hours. Let the amount of time that it takes them to rake the yard together be t, then:

\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{8}  \\  \\ = \frac{8+5}{40} = \frac{13}{40}  \\  \\ \therefore t= \frac{40}{13} =3 \frac{1}{13}\ hours</span>

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, plug in the numbers to the equation:

-4(-1)^{0} 2

Any non-zero expression raised to the power of 0 equals 1:

(-4)(1)(2)

Multiply the numbers:

-8

Solve the equation for k in terms of h.<br> (h-3k)/2k=-3/4
tatuchka [14]

(h-3k)/2k=-3/4

h-3k=-6k/4

4h-12k=-6k

-12k=-6k-4h

-6k=-4h

Solution: k=2/3h

I hope I helped you with your solution! If you could give me brainliest, I would be very thankful!

Enter the number of complex zeros for the polynomial function in the box.
Finger [1]

Given polynomial function:

f(x)=x^3-96x^2+400.

We need to apply Descartes' rule of sign to identify the number of complex roots.

The given polynomial is f(x)=x^3-96x^2+400

Let us see the number of sign changes in f(x)

There are 2 sign changes in f(x). One from plus to minus and second from plus to minus. Hence, there 2 or 0 positive roots.

Now, let us see the number of sign changes in f(-x)

f(-x)=-x^3-96x^2+400

There are only one sign change. Hence, there will be 1 negative roots.

The degree of the polynomial is 3.

Hence, there will be exactly 3 zeros.

<em>Therefore, the possible numbers of zeros are:</em>

<em>2 positive, 1 negative and 0 complex</em>

<em>0 positive, 1 negative and 2 complex.</em>

Let us see the graph:

In the graph, we can see that the graph cuts the x axis at three points (2 positive, 1 negative points).

<h3>Hence, the number of complex zeros for the given polynomial is zero.</h3>
