Answer:

<em>(x-2)</em><em> is a factor of the function.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is,

f(x) = 5x^3+24x^2-75x+14

As when we equate any factor of a polynomial to zero, the value of x we get is the zero of the polynomial.

So equating all the options to 0, we get

  1. x+\dfrac{1}{2}=0\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{1}{2}
  2. x-\dfrac{1}{2}=0\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1}{2}
  3. x+2=0\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow x=-2
  4. x-2=0\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow x=2

If x is a zero of a polynomial, then after putting the value of x in the polynomial, it becomes 0.

So,

  1. f(-\dfrac{1}{2}) = 5(-\dfrac{1}{2}) ^3+24(-\dfrac{1}{2}) ^2-75(-\dfrac{1}{2}) +14=\dfrac{455}{8}\neq 0
  2. f(\dfrac{1}{2}) = 5(\dfrac{1}{2}) ^3+24(\dfrac{1}{2}) ^2-75(\dfrac{1}{2}) +14=-\dfrac{135}{8}\neq 0
  3. f(-2) = 5(-2)^3+24(-2)^2-75(-2)+14=220\neq 0
  4. f(2) = 5(2)^3+24(2)^2-75(2)+14=0

So, (x-2) is a factor of the function.

The number of customers that visit a local small business is 51,200 and has been continuously declining at a rate of 3.8% each y
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Final amount of customers =30141.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of customer remaining

A= p(1-r/n)^(nt)

P= initial amount of customers

R= rate but it's a negative rate

N= number of times

T= number of years

A= final amount of customers

A= p(1-r/n)^(nt)

A= 51200(1-0.038/14)^(14*14)

A= 51200(1-0.0027)^196

A= 51200(0.9973)^196

A= 51200(0.5887)

A= 30141.44

mixer [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we have to get x by itself. To do this, perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation.

5x+14=k

First, subtract 14 from both sides, because 14 is being added on to 5x. Subtraction is the opposite of addition.

5x+14-14=k-14

5x=k-14

Now, divide both sides by 5, because 5 and x are being multiplied. Division is the opposite of multiplication.

5x/5=k-14/5

x=k-14/5

So, the correct answer is choice B
