Answer: 150 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let her initial weight be represented by x.

Since Shep had lost 16% of his weight, which was 24 pounds. Shep weight before he was put on a diet would be:

16% × x = 24

0.16 × x = 24

0.16x = 24

x = 24/0.16

x = 150 pounds

A triangle has two sides of length 9 and 14 what is the smallest possible whole number length for the third side
melisa1 [442]

Let the third side = x.

The sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side

14 + 9 > x

  23 > x

14 + x > 9

   x > -5

9 + x > 14

   x > 5

So 5 < x < 23

Make a conjecture: How many solutions does a quartic equation x 4 + ax 3 + bx 2 + cx + d = 0 have? Explain.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Four

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of a polynomial is the highest of the degree of the monomials with non-zero co-efficient. In this problem we are given the polynomial:

                 $ x^4 + ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = 0 $

The degree of the polynomial is 4.

For a polynomial of <em>n- degree </em>we have <em>n solutions counting multiplicity</em>.

So for this four degree polynomial we would have 4 solutions. Could be real or complex depending on the equation.
