Step-by-step explanation:

So I found the l.c.m which is 8 and I multiplied it by the numbers and then

The subtracted the both mixed numbers and I got an answer of 15/8

F(x)=x cubed +3x squared -6x-8

svlad2 [7]

Answer: x = {-4, -1, 2}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

q p

F(x) = x³ + 3x² - 6x - 8

$\frac{p}{q} = +/- \frac{1, 2, 4, 8}{1}$

Possible rational roots are: +/- {1, 2, 4, 8}

F(1) = (1)³ + 3(1)² - 6(1) - 8

= 1 + 3 - 6 - 8

= -10 <em>Since the remainder is not 0, then x = 1 is not a root</em>

F(-1) = (-1)³ + 3(-1)² - 6(-1) - 8

= -1 + 3 + 6 - 8

= 0 <em>Since the remainder is 0, x = -1 is a root.</em>

Use synthetic division to find the remaining factor:

x = -1 → x + 1 = 0

-1 | 1 3 -6 -8

<u>| ↓ -1 -2 8 </u>

1 2 -8 0

(x + 1)(x² + 2x - 8) = 0

Next, factor the polynomial:

(x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 2) = 0

x + 1 = 0 x + 4 = 0 x - 2 = 0

x = -1 x = -4 x = 2

On the first day of spring, an entire field of flowering trees blossoms. The population of locusts consuming these flowers rapid

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$L(t) = 4600\bigg(\dfrac{6}{7}\bigg)^{\frac{t}{2.4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of locusts on first day = 4600

Gain in locust population every 2.4 days =

$\dfrac{6}{7}$

Thus, we can write the following function to model locust population in t days.

$L(t) = 4600\bigg(\dfrac{6}{7}\bigg)^{\frac{t}{2.4}}$

is the required function.

L(t) is a dependent function on t, L(t) is locusts population and t is amount of time in days.

A company is producing a new product. Due to the nature of the product, the time required to produce each unit decreases as wor

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The total time to produce units 1 through 10 = 21.762 hours

The total time to produce units 30 through 40 = 22.187 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.6(1/x)

Time required to produce 1st unit = 2.6

Time required to produce 2nd unit = 2.3

Time required to produce 3rd unit = 2.2

Time required to produce 4th unit = 2.15

Time required to produce 5th unit = 2.12

Time required to produce 6th unit = 2.1

Time required to produce 7th unit = 2.09

Time required to produce 8th unit = 2.075

Time required to produce 9th unit = 2. 067

Time required to produce 10th unit = 2. 06

The total time required for a new worker to produce units 1 through 10 is the sum of the above times. The total time to produce units 1 through 10 = 21.762

Function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.6(1/x)

Time required to produce 30th unit = 2.02

Time required to produce 31st unit = 2.019

Time required to produce 32nd unit = 2.0188

Time required to produce 33rd unit = 2.018

Time required to produce 34th unit = 2.0176

Time required to produce 35th unit = 2.017

Time required to produce 36th unit = 2.0167

Time required to produce 37th unit = 2.016

Time required to produce 38th unit = 2.0158

Time required to produce 39th unit = 2. 0154

Time required to produce 40th unit = 2. 015

The total time required for a new worker to produce units 30 through 40 is the sum of the above times. The total time to produce units 30 through 40 = 22.187
