What are the zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = (x + 6)(x + 8)(x + 15)?

Set all the factors equal to 0 and solve for x.

1) x + 6 = 0

x = -6

2) x + 8 = 0

x = -8

3) x + 15 = 0

x = -15

When the function is graphed, you can see that the function crosses the numbers -15, -8, and -6 on the x-axis. These are the zeros.

Eduardwww [97]
Y=-3x+4
Gradient, m= -3
Parallel lines have equal gradients;
So, equation II,
y=mx+c
y=-3x+c
Replacing for x and y using point (-4, 6)
6=-3(-4)+c
6=12+c
6-12=c
c=-6
y=-3x-6

Complete the equivalent equation for –7x – 60 = x2 + 10x.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

x = -5

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

- 7x - 60 = x^2 + 10x

add 7x to both sides

x^2 + 17x = -60

add 60 to both sides

x^2 + 17x + 60 = 0

factorise quadratic

(x + 12) (x + 5) = 0

<em>x = -12</em>

<em>x = -12x = -5</em>

An angle in standard position measures 5п 8 radians. In which quadrant does the terminal side of this angle lie? O Quadrant I II
user100 [1]

Answer:

<em>I've attached a picture of a unit circle with the quadrant labeled. </em>

<u>Calculate the degree of 5п 8 radians:</u>

\frac{5\pi }{8} =\frac{5*180}{8} =\frac{900}{8} =112.5

<u>Locate the general location of 112.5° on the unit circle:</u>

It's between 120°(\frac{2\pi }{3}) and 90°(\frac{\pi }{2}).

<u>Find the quadrant it lies in:</u>

Quadrant II
