Step-by-step explanation:
I think, he made a mistake because the exponents have different values but then if you'll look at his results, he just wrote the same thing. If you want, you could post the original problem, and I'll solve it for you :)

Answer: Negative</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
3/7 = 0.42857 approximately
Pick a number between that value and 5, not including either endpoint. Let's say we pick x = 2
Plug x = 2 into the f(x) function
f(x) = (x - 5)(2x + 7)(7x-3)
f(2) = (2 - 5)(2*2 + 7)(7*2-3)
f(2) = (2 - 5)(4 + 7)(14-3)
f(2) = (-3)(11)(11)
f(2) = -363
The actual result doesn't matter. All we're after is whether the result is positive or negative. We see the result is negative. This means f(x) is negative when 3/7 < x < 5. The f(x) curve is below the x axis on this interval.
Answer:
x=16
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x/8)=2
2x / 16=2
x 16 x 16
2x=32
2x/2= 32/2
x= 16
Click off the first one because 180 (Thea) < 225 (Eleanor). Then keep the second one and click the third and fourth one.
