Answer:

  • x = 4 is the only real zero

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Find the zero's of f(x)</u>

  • 2x³ - 12x² + 20x - 16 = 0
  • x³ - 6x² + 10x  - 8 = 0
  • x³ - 4x² - 2x² + 8x + 2x - 8 = 0
  • x²(x - 4) - 2x(x - 4) + 2(x - 4) = 0
  • (x - 4)(x² - 2x + 2) = 0
  • (x - 4)(x² - 2x + 1 + 1) = 0
  • (x - 4)[(x - 1)² + 1] = 0
  • x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4, we already know this
  • (x - 1)² + 1 = 0 ⇒ (x - 1)² = - 1, no real solution as the square is never negative

Maybe write it down, like how you see other math problems.

And then solve it!

Solve the simultaneous equations<br> -x + 5y = -7<br> x + y = – 5<br> x = 1<br> y= 0
vodomira [7]

y= -5-x

-x + 5(-5-x) = -7

-x -25-5x =-7

-x-5x = 25 -7

-6x= 18

x = -3

-3 +y = -5

y= -5 +3

=-2

-(-3) + 5(-2)

3 - 10 = -7

Natalie works in a department store selling clothing. She makes a guaranteed salary of $300 per week, but is paid a commission o
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Natalie basic salary is $300 per week. She is paid a commission of 30% of her total sales for the week. Therefore her total weekly salary per week is given by:

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions

If Natalie makes $225 in sales, her commission = 30% of $225 = 0.3 × $225 = $67.5

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $67.5

Total weekly salary = $367.5

b) If Natalie makes $x in sales, her commission = 30% of $x = 0.3 × $x = $0.3x

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $0.3x

Total weekly salary = $(300 + 0.3x)

What is the coordinates of the vertex of y=x^2-4x+1
zvonat [6]
So to find the x vertex u have to apply the formula x= -b/2a so it will be
x= -(-4)/2(1)
x= 4/2
x= 2
and to find the y vertex u just substitute the x value into the original equation so it will be
y= (2)^2-4(2)+1
y= 4-8+1
y= -3
so the coordinates of the vertex are (2,-3)
