note that the zeroes should be x = 1 and x = - 2 not x = - 1 and x = 2

the factors are then ( x - 1 ) and (x + 2)

and x³ - 4x² - 7x + 10 = (x - 1 )(x + 2) = x² + x - 2

thus x² + x - 2 is a factor

dividing x³ - 4x² - 7x + 10 by x² + x - 2 gives x - 5

the third zero is x = 5

check : (5)³ -4(5)² - 7(5) + 10 = 125 - 100 - 35 + 10 = 0

Answer: Option C)1 over 15 minus 1 over x equals 1 over 20

Explanation:

Since, Micah can fill a box with books in 15 minutes.

Therefore, the work done by Micah in one minute= 1/15

Also, Sydney takes the books out puts them on a shelf.

And the times taken by Micah when Sydney is also taking the books outside from the self= 20 minutes

Therefore, the work done by Micah in one minute when Sydney  taking books out of the box= 1/20

Let Sydney alone takes x minutes to take books outsides the shelf.

Then, work done by Sydney in one minute=1/x

Thus, the work done by Sydney( by taking books out of the box)=  the work done by Micah - work done by Micah and Sydney simultaneously= 1/15-1/20

⇒1/x=1/15-1/20

⇒1/15-1/20=1/x

⇒1/15-1/x=1/20 is the required expression.

Therefore, Option C is correct.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Join A and C and B and D. And add numbers to the angles formed on one of the diagonal
In triangles ABC and ADC,
Angle 1 = Angle 4
Angle 3 = Angle 2
AC = AC
Therefore, triangle ABC=ADC
Since, ABC=ADC
Similarly, triangle ABD= triangle CDB
Therefore, AB=CD and BC=DA
