Answer: x=-3, y=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

you will leave the first equation alone for now

the second, we will subtract 2y from both sides

5x-2y=1

now you system is

4x-y=-4

5x-2y=1

we will multiply the first equation with -2

-8x+2y=8

5x-2y=1

add both equations, we get -8x+5x=9,  -3x=9,  

x=-3

we will replace x with -3 in any equation, lets use 4x-y=-4,

-12-y= -4,         -y=12-4,                -y=8,         y=-8

8x - 2y = -8
-5x + 2y = -1

3x = -9
x = -3

Write a polynomial function in standard form with zeros at −3, −1, and 1.
Annette [7]

Answer:

f(x) = {x}^{3}  + 3 {x}^{2}  - x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial has zeros at:

x=−3, x=−1, and x=1.

This means that:

x+3, x+1, and x-1 are all factors of this polynomial.

The factored form of this polynomial is :

f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 1)

We expand the last two factors using difference of two squares.

f(x) = (x + 3)( {x}^{2}  - 1)

f(x) = x ( {x}^{2}  - 1) + 3( {x}^{2}  - 1)

f(x) = {x}^{3}  - x+ 3 {x}^{2}  -3

f(x) = {x}^{3}  + 3 {x}^{2}  - x -3

This is the standard form because it is now in decreasing powers of x.

Please help with this question.
horsena [70]

Answer:

Apples and Peaches

Step-by-step explanation:

It is convenient to compare the prices for 3 lbs of each of the fruits.

Multiply the price and quantity of Apples by 4:

... 4×(3/4 lb) = 4×$1.59

... 3 lb = $6.36 . . . . for apples

Multiply the price and quantity of Plums by 6:

... 6×(0.5 lb) = 6×$1.15

... 3 lb = $6.90 . . . . for plums

The two lowest-priced fruits are apples (6.36/(3 lb)) and peaches (5.37/(3 lb)).

_____

<em>Comment on</em> the best deal

No criteria are provided for determining the best deal. Though plums are higher-priced, they have somewhat higher polyphenol content than apples or peaches, so may provide the best deal in terms of nutrition per dollar.
