Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial is :
p(x) = 5-10x
We need to find the zeros of the above polynomial. To find it, put p(x) = 0
5-10x = 0
Subtract 5 from both sides
5-10x-5=0-5
-10x=-5
or
10x=5
Divide both sides by 10.
x = 0.5 = 1/2
Hence, the zeros of the polynomial is 1/2.
x(t) = 20t
y(t) = 40t - 5t^2
Since we are only interested in comparing the two at time t = 5 seconds, we plug in 5 everywhere we see the variable t and then compare x and y
x(5) = 20(5) becomes x(5) = 100
y(5) = 40(5) - 5(5)^2 becomes y(5) = 200 - 125 and then y(5) = 75
The ratio of y to x can be expressed as: y/x, so we can say the ratio is equal to 75/100 or 0.75
Answer: 0.75
The slope is 4 or you can think of it as 4/1 if that helps. Remember slope intercept form is y=mx+b.
The third table on the top row. It has a linear function because the Y is always constant. For example: -3 + -2= -5 -5 + -2= -7
