For every 2 pounds of salmon she pays for she will get 3 pounds of sword fish with it. 2 to 3 or 2/3 are different ways to Write a ratio for this problem.
Answer:
I am pretty sure the answer is A.
0 = f(x) = (x - r)(x - s) = x² - (r+s) + rs
We have r=1.5+√2, s=1.5 -√2 so r+s = 3 and
rs = (1.5+√2)(1.5 - √2) = 1.5² - (√2)² = 2.25 - 2 = 0.25
f(x) = x² - 3x + -.25
For integer coefficients we mulitply by 4,
g(x) = 4f(x) = 4x² - 12x - 1
Answer: 4x² - 12x - 1 = 0
