There are 30 books on the library shelf, Sam noted that 1/6 of them are non fiction. Dan notes that 3/5 of the books are fiction
ehidna [41]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Fiction books:  (1/6) of 30 books = 5 books

Non-fiction books:  (3/5) of (30) books = 18 books

The subtotal here is 5 + 18, or 23.  

23 of the books are either fiction or non fiction.

30 - 23, or 7, of the books remain (are neither fiction nor non-fiction).

At which root does the graph of f(x) = (x – 5)3(x + 2)2 touch the x axis?
LuckyWell [14K]
We have that
f(x) = (x – 5)³(x + 2)²

we know that
<span>the roots can touch or cross the x axis

</span>The way you can tell if the graph is going to cross the x-axis or just touch the x-axis is by looking at the power of the factor.

(x - 5)³ has a power of 3 which is an ODD number. An ODD power means that the graph will cross through the x-axis.

(x + 2)² has a power of 2 which is an EVEN number. An EVEN power means that the graph will touch the x-axis.

therefore

the answer is
<span>the graph of f(x) touch the x axis for the root x=-2
</span>
see the attached figure
