F(x) =x2-17x+60 how to find the zeros of the function​

Answer:

x = 5, x = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic function which may factor to the form (x - a)(x - b) whose zeroes are a and b.

To factor this we need two numbers whose product is +60 and whose sum is -17. They are -5 and -12 ( -5*-12 = 60 and -12 + -5 = -17).

So the factors are :

(x - 5)(x - 17)

To find the zeros we equate this to 0:

(x - 5)(x - 17) = 0

x- 5 = 0 gives x = 5

and

x - 12 = 0 gives x = 12.

Answer:

x = 1&16

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 0 then

0 =x^2 - 17x + 16

(x-1)(x-16) =0

x -1 =0 or x-16=0

x =1 & x = 16

The simplified form of 0.02(0.06+0.008)is​
kramer

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use PEDMAS. So first addition has to be done as it is inside parenthesis. After that multiplication has to be done

0.060  +

<u>0.008</u>

<u>0.068</u>

In decimal multiplication, first multiply the numbers ie, 2 * 68 which is 136. Then count the number of decimal places in both the multiplicands and keep the same number of decimal places in the result(136).

0.02 * 0.068 = 0.00136

2x + 8 &gt; -4 <br><br> x = 4<br><br> Describe how to graph it on a number line.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on 2x + 8 > -4 first.  Solve for x:  Subtract 8 from both sides, which results in 2x > -12.

Dividing both sides by 2, we get x > -6.

Draw an open circle around -6 on the number line, and then draw an arrow to the right from x = -6.

Note that letting x = 4 is not helpful.  2(4) + 8 > -4 is true (16 > -4 is true).
