Factor f(x) = 15x^3 - 15x^2 - 90x completely and determine the exact value(s) of the zero(s) and enter them as a comma separated

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$x=-2,0,3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function $f(x)=15x^3-15x^2-90x$ . We are asked to find the zeros of our given function.

To find the zeros of our given function, we will equate our given function by 0 as shown below:

$15x^3-15x^2-90x=0$

Now, we will factor our equation. We can see that all terms of our equation a common factor that is $15x$ .

Upon factoring out $15x$ , we will get:

$15x(x^2-x-6)=0$

Now, we will split the middle term of our equation into parts, whose sum is $-1$ and whose product is $-6$ . We know such two numbers are $-3\text{ and }2$ .

$15x(x^2-3x+2x-6)=0$

$15x((x^2-3x)+(2x-6))=0$

$15x(x(x-3)+2(x-3))=0$

$15x(x-3)(x+2)=0$

Now, we will use zero product property to find the zeros of our given function.

$15x=0\text{ (or) }(x-3)=0\text{ (or) }(x+2)=0$

$15x=0\text{ (or) }x-3=0\text{ (or) }x+2=0$

$\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{0}{15}\text{ (or) }x-3=0\text{ (or) }x+2=0$

$x=0\text{ (or) }x=3\text{ (or) }x=-2$

Therefore, the zeros of our given function are $x=-2,0,3$ .

Avon Edwards worked 45.5 hours at $5 per hour. He made $100 in tips but no bonuses. Anything over 40 hours is paid time-and-a-ha

posledela

Answer:

1. D

2. B

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

We can get Avon's earnings using the equation $W=HR+1.5VR+B+T$

Where W is his earnings

HR is the regular hours (40 hours in this case)

V is overtime hours (hours over 40, 45.5 - 40 = 5.5 hours)

B is bonus (no bonus)

T is tips ( $100 tips, given)

and R is the rate (which is $5 per hour)

Substituting the given info into the equation, we get:

$W=HR+1.5VR+B+T\\W=(40)(5)+1.5(5.5)(5)+0+100\\W=341.25$

So avon's earnings are $341.25

Answer choice D is right.

Question 2:

The other employee needs to work $x$ hours @ $15 per hour to equate or surpass $428. So we can set up the equation shown below and solve for x:

$(15)(x)=428\\x=\frac{428}{15}\\x=28.53$

Rounded to 1 decimal place, this is about 28.5 hours

Answer choice B is right.
