<h3>Answer:  1</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

We're told that f(x) = -4. That means we can replace the f(x) in the first equation and solve for x.

f(x) = -5x+1

-4 = -5x+1 ..... replaced f(x) with -4

-5x+1 = -4

-5x = -4-1

-5x = -5

x = -5/(-5)

x = 1

As a way to check, we plug in x = 1 to get...

f(x) = -5x+1

f(1) = -5(1)+1

f(1) = -5+1

f(1) = -4

So the answer is confirmed. If f(x) = -4, then x = 1.

The function f(t) = 3 - t shows the cost of an ice cream sundae ($) with a different number of toppings (t). What is the slope o
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

are you sure this is the right equation ? it would mean that the more toppings the cheaper the ice cream.

but as it is written, the slope is -1.

the slope of a line is always the factor of the variable in the equation.

it is the ratio of y/x indicating how many units y is changing for a given change of x.

in our example here, if x changes 1 unit to the right (+1), then y changes 1 unit down (-1).

so, -1/+1 = -1

Write a polynomial in standard form with zeros 1, 2, and −5.
lianna [129]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter C

Step-by-step explanation:

With zeros 1, 2 and -5

Process

1.- Equal the zeros to x

           x₁ = 1               x₂ = 2     x₃ = - 5

           x₁ - 1 = 0         x₂ - 2 = 0     x₃ + 5 = 0

2.- Write the roots as a product

           (x - 1)(x - 2)(x + 5)= 0

3.- Multiply the zeros

           (x - 1)(x - 2) = x² - 2x - x + 2

Simplify                = x² - 3x + 2

            (x + 5)(x² - 3x + 2) = x³ - 3x² + 2x + 5x² - 15x + 10

Simplify like terms and result

                                          = x³ + 2x² - 13x + 10
