Answer:

N = 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be N

let's express the word sentence as a mathematical expression:

"a number multiplied by 2/5"

= "N" multiplied by 2/5

= N x (2/5)

= (2N/5) ------- (1)

"a number multiplied by 2/5 is 3/20" can be written as:

(2N/5)    =  3/20  (multiplying both sides by 5)

2N = (3/20) x 5

2N = 3/4      (divide both sides by 2)

N = (3/4) ÷ 2

N = (3/4) x (1/2)

N = 3/8

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Exactly two distinct zeros

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2(x-1) (x + 4)

Plug y = 0

0 = 2(x-1) (x + 4)

0/2 = (x-1) (x + 4)

(x-1) (x + 4) = 0

(x-1) = 0 or (x + 4)= 0

x = 1 or x = - 4

Here, x has two distinct roots, therefore given quadratic relation has Exactly two distinct zeros.
