Answer:

The zeros are:

$x =4, x=2, x = 5$

The function has three distinct real zeros.

Hence, option (B) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$h\left(x\right)=\left(x-4\right)^2\left(x^2-7x+\:10\right)$

Let us determine the zeros of the function by putting h(x) = 0 and solving the expression

$0=\left(x-4\right)^2\left(x^2-7x+10\right)$

switch sides

$\left(x-4\right)^2\left(x^2-7x+10\right)=0$

as

$x^2-7x+\:10=\left(x-2\right)\left(x-5\right)$

so

$\left(x-4\right)^2\left(x-2\right)\left(x-5\right)=0$

Using the zero factor principle

$\mathrm{If}\:ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)$

so

$x-4=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x-2=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x-5=0$

$x =4, x=2, x = 5$

Thus, the zeros are:

$x =4, x=2, x = 5$

It is clear that there are three zeros and all the zeros are distinct real numbers.

Therefore,

The function has three distinct real zeros.

Hence, option (B) is true.

The scatter plot shows a correlation between the years and the rainfall in centimeters in Tennessee.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual values are shown on the given graph as blue points.

The line of regression is shown on the given graph as the red line.

From inspection of the graph, in the year 2000 the actual rainfall was 43 cm, shown by point (2000, 43). It appears that the regression line is at y = 50 when x is the year 2000.

⇒ Difference = 50 - 43 = 7 cm

In 2000, the actual rainfall was 7 centimeters below what the model predicts.

From inspection of the graph, in the year 2003 the actual rainfall was 44 cm, shown by point (2003, 40). It appears that the regression line is at y = 40 when x is the year 2003.

⇒ Difference = 44 - 40 = 4 cm

In 2003, the actual rainfall was 4 centimeters above what the model predicts.

Write the equation of a line that has a m= -5 and passes through the point (-1,4)

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

We have a slope and a point, this way, we do not need to find the slope using two points. We can find the line using the Slope Form to turn it into Slope-Intercept Form, also known as "y = mx + b". We can use the Slope Form which is "y - y1 = m(x - x1)". A coordinate is "(x,y)", so that means, "(-1,4)" means that x = -1 and y = 4. We can substitute y1 for 4 and x1 for -1, and m for -5 since m is the slope. Plugging that information into the Slope Form Formula we get "y - 4 = -5(x - (-1))". We know that a negative with a negative turn positive, so we can use this information to change the formula to "y - 4 = -5(x + 1)". Now we distribute and simplify, these steps are shown below.

y - 4 = -5(x + 1)

y - 4 = -5x -5

y - 4 + 4 = -5x - 5 + 4

y = -5x - 1

Now that we have simplified it, we can see that the slope is -5 and the -1 is the y-intercept. To check this is a linear equation is to graph it, or substitute three x-coordinate or y-coordinates and draw a line. In conclusion, the equations is y = -5x - 1.

Mr. Thompson had a balance of $283.12 in his checking account at the beginning of the month he wrote checks for $23.09 $7.56 $12

ryzh [129]

Account balance is $123.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Balance in Thompson's account = $283.12. Calculate the total amount of checks Thompson wrote in the month.

Total amount of checks = $23.09 + $7.56 + $125.11 + $4.28

= $160.04

Step 2: Calculate his balance.

Account balance = $283.12 - $160.04

= $123.08
