<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

The plus/minus of the following: 1/2, 1, 2, 5/2, 4, 5, 10, 20

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

Explanation:

Refer to the rational root theorem. To find the possible rational roots, we divide the factors of the last term 20 over the factors of the first coefficient 2.

  • Factors of 20 are: 1,2,4,5,10,20
  • Factors of 2 are: 1,2

Dividing those said factors leads us to the list in choice D. We include the positive and negative versions of each result. For example, divide 10 over 2 to get 10/2 = 5 as one possible root (which leads to -5 as well).

A table like the one shown below might be handy to keep track of all the terms.

Answer:

  • D

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simplify the given equation by dividing all terms by 2:</u>

  • x³ + 2.5x² - 4x - 10 = 0
  • x²(x + 2.5) - 4(x + 2.5) = 0
  • (x + 2.5)(x² - 4) = 0
  • (x + 2.5)(x + 2)(x -2) = 0

<u>Roots are:</u>

  • - 2.5, -2, 2

Correct choice is D

Chin-li is building a brick wall along the front of his property. The wall will have 15 rows of bricks, with 32 bricks in each r
Finger [1]

Answer:

<h3>The solution is 480 bricks.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that number of rows of bricks in a wall = 15 rows.

Number of bricks in a row = 32 bricks.

In order to find the total number of bricks, we need to multiply number of rows with number of bricks in a row.

Total number of bricks in 15 rows = 15 × 32 = 480 bricks.

Therefore, will Chin-li will need 480 bricks.

<h3>The solution is 480 bricks.</h3>

We have the number -28 and we are subtracting 3 from it. This means we are going even further into the negatives, so it is -31.
