Mr Thompson please help with my new HW

Mathematics
1 answer:
sesenic [268]3 years ago
3 0

Answers:

  1. C) x = plus/minus 11
  2. B) No real solutions
  3. C) Two solutions
  4. A) One solution
  5. The value <u>  18  </u> goes in the first blank. The value <u>  17  </u> goes in the second blank.

========================================================

Explanations:

  1. Note how (11)^2 = (11)*(11) = 121 and also (-11)^2 = (-11)*(-11) = 121. The two negatives multiply to a positive. So that's why the solution is x = plus/minus 11. The plus minus breaks down into the two equations x = 11 or x = -11.
  2. There are no real solutions here because the left hand side can never be negative, no matter what real number you pick for x. As mentioned in problem 1, squaring -11 leads to a positive number 121. The same idea applies here as well.
  3. The two solutions are x = 0 and x = -2. We set each factor equal to zero through the zero product property. Then we solve each equation for x. The x+2 = 0 leads to x = -2.
  4. We use the zero product property here as well. We have a repeated factor, so we're only solving one equation and that is x-3 = 0 which leads to x = 3. The only root is x = 3.
  5. Apply the FOIL rule on (x+1)(x+17) to end up with x^2+17x+1x+17 which simplifies fully to x^2+18x+17. The middle x coefficient is 18, while the constant term is 17.

Explain how to determine the zeros of f(x)= (x+3)(x-2)(x-6)
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The zeros of f(x)  are -3, 2 , 6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is a polynomial of degree 3.

If the polynomial is not factorized we will either factorize to find the zero or use trial and error method.

Since the f(x) in the question is in the factorized form. we will have to equate each factor to zero.

f(x) = (x+3)(x-2)(x-6)

x + 3 = 0 => x = -3

x - 2 = 0 =>  x = 2

x - 6 = 0 => x = 6

I don't get this... someone explain this plum thing please...... Before a plum is dried to become a prune, it is 92% water. A pr
taurus [48]

Answer:

21.74 But if it tells you to round I would round to 21 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

its basically just a ratio of 92 to 20

92/20=4.6

92-20=72% the amount that is lost

so given that the plum is 100 lbs we know that 72% is depleted

(72/92 = .78)X100= 78 lbs depleted

Lastly 100-78 =22 for the remaining weight of the prunes.

Can someone please help me with 19a?
Mila [183]

Answer:

d(t) = 60t

Step-by-step explanation:

When d = 0, t = 0 as well, so the y-intercept in 0. The slope of the line would be 60.

Hope this helps!
