Answer:

-5 and 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers (let's just say number a and number b) is 12.

a + b = 12

The difference between the same two numbers (still a and b) is 22.

b - a = 22

(Move variable a to the right side to get the following.)

b = 22 + a

(This way, we can substitute b = 22 + a into the first equation, a + b = 12, and solve.)

a + (22 + a) = 12

a + a + 22 = 12

2a = -10

a = -5

a + b = 12

-5 + b = 12

b = 17

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.

Kay [80]

The answer would be A) $79.20

(220*.4).9 as 60 percent off means that the product is only 40 percent of its original value, furthermore, we multiply the entire thing by .9

May anyone help please
lapo4ka [179]

Depending on how flexibly you interpret "about 20 times larger" to mean, the answers are B and D.

Check the ratios of the larger number to the smaller number:

A: (2.01 x 10^7)/(4.25 x 10^6) = 2.01/4.25 x 10^1 = 20.1/4.25 = 4.729

B: (8.21 x 10^-3)/(4.13 x 10^-4) = 8.21/4.13 x 10^1 = 82.1/4.13 = 19.879

C: (4.91 x 10^6)/(5.09 x 10^3) = 4.91/5.09 x 10^3 = 4910/5.09 = 964.637

D: (5.97 x 10^4)/(3.12 x 10^3) = 5.97/3.12 x 10^1 = 59.7/3.12 = 19.135
