Answer: choice 1) 4

-----------------------------

Explanation:

The equation x^3+6x^2-x-10 = 0 is the same as 1x^3+6x^2-x-10 = 0
The first term is 1x^3 and the last term is -10
Pull away the coefficient of the first term and it is 1

Focus on the first coefficient (1) and the last term (-10)

List out the factors of each:
Factors of 1: -1 and 1
Factors of -10: -10, -5, -2, -1, 1, 2, 5, 10

Divide the factors of the last term (-10) over the factors of the first coefficient (1) to get...
-10/(-1) = 10
-10/(1) = -10
-5/(-1) = 5
-5/(1) = -5
-2/(-1) = 2
-2/(1) = -2
-1/(-1) = 1
-1/(1) = -1

10/(-1) = -10
10/(1) = 10
5/(-1) = -5
5/(1) = 5
2/(-1) = -2
2/(1) = 2
1/(-1) = -1
1/(1) = 1

The unique results we get are: -1, 1, -2, 2, -5, 5, -10, 10

So those are the possible rational roots of x^3+6x^2-x-10 = 0
This rules out choice 2, choice 3, choice 4. The only thing left is choice 1. 
The value 4 is not a possible rational root of x^3+6x^2-x-10 = 0

So that's why choice 1 is the answer

The following graph describes function 1 and the equation below it describes function 2:
Tanya [424]
Function 1: 
f(x) = -x² + 8(x-15)f(x) = -x² <span>+ 8x - 120
Function 2:
</span>f(x) = -x² + 4x+1
Taking derivative will find the highest point of the parabola, since the slope of the parabola at its maximum is 0, and the derivative will allow us to find that.
Function 1 derivative: -2x + 8 ⇒ -2x + 8 = 0 ⇒ - 2x = -8 ⇒ x = -8/-2 = 4

Function 2 derivative:  -2x+4 ⇒ -2x + 4 = 0 ⇒ -2x = -4 ⇒ x = -4/-2 ⇒  x= 2
Function 1: f(x) = -x² <span>+ 8x - 120 ; x = 4
f(4) = -4</span>² + 8(4) - 120 = 16 + 32 - 120 = -72
<span>
Function 2: </span>f(x) = -x²<span> + 4x+1 ; x = 2
</span>f(2) = -2² + 4(2) + 1 = 4 + 8 + 1 = 13

Function 2 has the larger maximum.

Write an algebraic expression that represents each purchase.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: Both answers will be

15x+18

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of soccer balls = $15

Cost of baseball = $6

Cost of sweat socks = $5

a) Mr. Tonkery bought x number of soccer balls and 3 base balls .

So, our algebraic expression will be

15x+3\times 6\\\\=15x+18

b) Dennis, Eddie and Felix are on a base ball team. They each bought a baseball and x pair of sweat socks .

Since there are 3 members in a base ball team ,

Number of base ball they will purchase is given by

3\times 6=18

Number of sweat socks they will bought is given by

5\times x\times 3=15x

Total number they will purchase is given by

15x+18

Hence, both answers will be

15x+18
