The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.
In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.
So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.
In fact, in general, if the polynomial
has solutions
, then you can factor it as

So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as

But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.
Hi there!
Okay, so I was a bit confused by your question, but I tried to make it a bit easier and work out.
There was two ways I did this because I didn't want to NOT answer your question!
What about this:
3.2/15 cannot be simplified lower than what it is. Decimal form is 0.2133333 (repeating). I answered this part because I didn't know what 3. was (I at first thought it was part of the numerator. But now that I look at it again it may have been a question number. But just in case, I answered it like this anyway.)
Next!
I solved 2/15, which also cannot be simplified down lower than what it is. It's decimal form is 0.133333 (another repeating decimal.)
And so as you can see I answered two problems for you. If these are incorrect, let me know!
Hope this helps!
Just plot the points on the graph.
2. You know since the graph is a straight line, the ratios are proportional and therefore equivalent
Answer is 5 because the other sides are 9 each
