Answer:

ELLA

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance covered by Ella = 5/10

Distance covered by Sam = 7/8

Comparing each distance to 1/2

Ella = 5/ 10 = 1/2 ; 1/2 = 1/2 = 0.5

Sam = 7/8 = 0.875 ; comparing with 1/2

0.875 > 0.5

Given

Sam ran farther Than ELLA

Because 0.875 > 1/2

0.875 - 0. 5 = 0.375

Using the given zero, find one other zero of f(x). i is a zero of f(x).= x4 - 2x3 + 38x2 - 2x + 37.
oksian1 [2.3K]
If i is a zero of the polynomial, then the factor is (x - i). Because of the conjugate rule, it is understood that one other root of the polynomial HAS to be (x + i). So that's one other root. The other 2 roots are (1 + 6i) and (1 - 6i).

A wall has an area of 40 ft. It’s height is 8 feet. Which equation could you use to find its width. Answers 40- w = 8
RideAnS [48]

8w=40

You get area by doing length x width. In this case, the “length” is the height. So you would need to figure out what you multiply 8 by to get 40.

While playing mini golf, you hit the ball off of a wall to attempt at making it in the hole. The ball is located at (5,4) and th
makvit [3.9K]
Drawing this out shows the angle the ball hits the wall is arcTan(4/2) = 63 degrees.  It bounds upwards at and angle of arcTan(9/2) = 77 degrees, so the angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of 'bounce' unless some spin is put on the ball indicating a very good putter.....
