Answer:

7 buffalos and 3 ducks

Step-by-step explanation:

create a system of equations:

4 y + 2 x = 34

y + x = 10

* y is for buffaos and x is for ducks

solve the equation:

y=10-x

4(10-x)+2x=34

x=3

y=10-3

y=7

7 buffalos and 3 ducks

Write a polynomial function of minimum degree with real coefficients whose zeros include those listed. Write the polynomial in s
wolverine [178]

Answer:

x^4 - 14x^2 - 40x - 75.

Step-by-step explanation:

As complex roots exist in conjugate pairs the other zero is -1 - 2i.

So in factor form we have the polynomial function:

(x - 5)(x + 3)(x - (-1 + 2i))(x - (-1 - 2i)

= (x - 5)(x + 3)( x + 1 - 2i)(x +1 + 2i)

The first 2 factors  = x^2 - 2x - 15 and

( x + 1 - 2i)(x +1 + 2i) = x^2 + x + 2ix + x + 1 + 2i - 2ix - 2i - 4 i^2

=  x^2 + 2x + 1 + 4

= x^2 + 2x + 5.

So in standard form we have:

(x^2 - 2x - 15 )(x^2 + 2x + 5)

= x^4  + 2x^3 + 5x^2 - 2x^3 - 4x^2 - 10x - 15x^2 - 30x - 75

= x^4 - 14x^2 - 40x - 75.

Rita makes and sells necklaces. The materials to make each necklace cost $2.75. Last week she made 8 necklaces and wants to make
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The error she made was that she was adding x and 2.75. She should subtract 2.75 from x.

Another mistake that she made was that she sold each for $7 assuming that she would make a profit of 78, but she should see each necklace for $12.5 so that she could make a profit of $78.

Step-by-step explanation:

The error she made was that she was adding x and 2.75.

She should write the equation as 8 (x - 2.75) = 78; as she spends $2.75 to make a necklace.

By using the correct equation: 8 (x - 2.75) = 78

=> 8x - 22 = 78

=> 8x = 78 + 22

=> 8x = 100

=> x = 100/8

=> x = 12.5

Another mistake that she made was that she sold each for $7 assuming that she would make a profit of 78, but she should see each necklace for $12.5 so that she could make a profit of $78.

Hope this helps you.
