Answer:
x = -16 or x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the roots of a polynomial function, set the polynomial equal to zero and solve for x.
x² + 10x - 96 = 0
We need to factor the left side. The left side is a quadratic polynomial whose first coefficient is 1. We need two numbers whose product is -96 and whose sum is 10. The numbers are 16 and -6.
(x + 16)(x - 6) = 0
If a product of two factors equals zero, then one factor or the other or both must equal zero.
x + 16 = 0 or x - 6 = 0
x = -16 or x = 6
Answer: 4/5 of a box of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Justine sold 1¹/₅ times the ²/₃ of a box of candy that Grayson sold.
Justin sold;
= 1¹/₅ * ²/₃
= 6/5 * 2/3
= 12/15
= 4/5 of a box of candy
Answer:
y=250x+2000
Step-by-step explanation:
The farmer starts with 2000 trees and adds 250 each year.
Year 0 2000
Year 1 2000 + 250 = 2000+ 1(250)
Year 2 2000 + 250 +250 = 2000 + 2(250)
Year 3 2000 + 250 + 250 + 250 = 2000 + 3(250)
Year 4 2000 + 250 + 250 + 250 + 250 = 2000 + 4 (250)
.....
Year X 2000 + 250x
