Answer:

  -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeros of a polynomial function are its x-intercepts, the values of x that make the polynomial zero. Each zero x=p corresponds to a linear factor (x-p) of the polynomial.

A monic polynomial is one that has a leading coefficient of 1. For a monic polynomial of degree n, the coefficient of the term of degree n-1 is the opposite of the sum of all of the zeros. The constant term of any odd-degree monic polynomial is the opposite of the product of the zeros.

The given polynomial can be made monic by dividing by its leading coefficient:

  (2x^3 -x^2 -5x -2)/2 = x^3 -(1/2)x^2 -(5/2)x -1

The given polynomial has degree 3, so we're interested in the coefficient of the x^2 term. That coefficient is -1/2, so the sum of zeros will be ...

  sum of zeros = -(-1/2) = 1/2

If z represents the third zero, then we have the sum ...

  1/2 = -1 +2 +z

  z = -1/2 . . . . . . subtract 1 from both sides

The third zero is -1/2.

The given polynomial is of odd degree, so the product of the zeros is the opposite of the constant.

  (-1)(2)(z) = -(-1)

  z = 1/(-2) = -1/2 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of z

The third zero is -1/2.

Of course, a graph will show all of the (real) zeros. The attached graph from a graphing calculator shows the third zero is -1/2.

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is 1.5

when x=0 , the value of y =1

when x=2 the value of y = 4

average rate of change formula = [tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

a= 0 , f(a)=1

b=2, f(b)= 4

4 - 1 / 2 - 0 = 3/2 = 1.5

Answer:

The third graph

Step-by-step explanation:

The third graph depicts the function f(x) = -1/2x because for every 1 unit decrease along the y-axis, you travel 2 units on the x-axis.

Also, the two points on the third graph can satisfy the equation.

Point 1: (-2,1)

f(-2) = (-1/2)(-2)

f(-2) = 1

Point 2: (0,0)

f(0) = (-1/2)(0)

f(0) = 0

The absolute value of debt of $45 is 45 because a balance of $0 on an account means there is no debt, and a negative of 45 value represents the debt.

It is defined as the amount one party needs to pay to another party as the first party borrowed an amount that will be credited by the second party. Debt occurs when one party cannot be able to purchase something under normal circumstances.

As we know,

The absolute value of a negative account balance is equal to the amount of debt. A balance of $0 on an account means there is no debt. Credit is shown by a positive account balance.

Richard has a debt of $45.

The negative of 45 value represents the debt.

-$45 = debt

Absolute value = |-45| = 45

Thus, the absolute value of debt of $45 is 45 because a balance of $0 on an account means there is no debt, and a negative of 45 value represents the debt.

Answer:  [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y -3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x-2)[/tex]

Write as slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

[tex]y-3=-\frac{1}{2}x + 1[/tex]

     [tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x+4[/tex]

Therefore, the slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

It is possible that a small sample size contributed to the 82% (±24%) estimate at a 95% confidence level.

A proportional confidence interval is provided by

[tex]\pi \pm z \sqrt{\frac{\pi (1-\pi )}{n} }[/tex]

Where π is the sample proportion, z is the critical value and n is the sample size.

The margin of error is represented by

[tex]z \sqrt{\frac{\pi (1-\pi )}{n} }[/tex]

As a result, smaller sample sizes result in wider margins of error. Option A has the greater margin of error in this scenario, so it most likely employed the smallest sample size.

Therefore we can conclude It is possible that a small sample size contributed to the 82% (±24%) estimate at a 95% confidence level. Option A is correct.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{x-22}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the numerator/denominator of the first fraction by (x - 4)

multiply the numerator/denominator of the second fraction by (x + 2)

this ensures that the fractions have a common denominator

[tex]\frac{4}{x+2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3}{x-4}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4(x-4)}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3(x+2)}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex] ← subtract numerators leaving the common denominator

= [tex]\frac{4x-16-3x-6}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex]

Answer:

t=4+6n

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 10

d=6

in general

tn = a + (n-1)*d

tn = 10 + (n-1)*6

tn = 10 + 6n - 6

tn = 4 + 6n

So if n = 5 then

t5= 4+6*5

t5= 4 + 30

t5 = 34 which agrees with your givens.

The triangle ABE and triangle DEC are similar by AAA option third is correct.

It is defined as the law to prove that the two triangles have the same shape, but it is not compulsory to have the same size. The ratio of the corresponding sides is in the same proportions and the corresponding angles are congruent.

We have given two triangles in the picture.

As we can see in the triangle ABE

Angle ABE = 90 degree or right angle

Similarly, in a triangle DEC

Angle DEC = 90 degree or right angle

Angle ABE = Angle DEC

Angle EAB = Angle CDE

If the corresponding two angles are the same as two triangles then the third the angle will be the same.

Angle AEB = Angle DCE

The triangle ABE and triangle DEC are similar to AAA

Thus, the triangle ABE and triangle DEC are similar by AAA option third is correct.

Answer:

6/12 or 1/2 or 50% or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have two 6-sided dice, and there are 3 odd numbers on each.

So, you put 6 on top, (the total number of odd outcomes) and 12 on the bottom. (12 total outcomes for both dice.) This simplifies to 1/2 or 50% or .5.

Answer:

Side b is approximately 4.00064cm or since the question asked for the answer to be up to one decimal point, your answer should be 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, this triangle isn't a right triangle. This can be proven if we assume that the triangle is a right triangle. If it is a right triangle, since, one of its angle is 30 degrees, we can find the last unknown angle to = 60 degrees. Therefore, using the side ratios of a 30-60-90 triangle, and since side b is the smallest side (because it has the smallest angle facing it), its length is one half the length of the hypotenuse, therefore making its length 4. However, the 30-60-90 ration also states that, in this case, side b * sqrt(3) should be equal to the side tha measure 7cm, which is clearly not true. Therefore, proving that this triangle isn't a rigt tirangle.

So now, let's get to solving the question. Since we found out that this isn't a right triangle, we have to use the law of cosines which states

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc*cos(A) where A is the angle facing side a

If we do this, it comes to the solution that a is approximately 4.00064cm.

Therefore, side b measures to 4.00064cm.

Answer:3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of total area mowed = (3/5) + (1/4) = 17/20

Therefore fraction of total area left = 1 - (17/20) = (20/20) - (17/20) = 3/20

The location of point B that partitions A(3, 4) and C(5, 11) in the ratio 2:3 is (3.8, 6.8).

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on other variables while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variables.

Let b = (x, y) represent the location of the point B, hence:

x = (2 / (2 + 3))(5 - 3) + 3 = 3.8

y = (2 / (2 + 3))(11 - 4) + 4 = 6.8

The equation of the line will be 3y + 8x = 165.

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

Given that:-

The given equation of the line is:-

3 x + 8 y = 4.

The slope of this line will be:-

3 x + 8 y = 4.

8y = -3x + 4

y = -3 /8x + ( 1 / 2)

y = mx + c

m = -3 / 8

Since the line is perpendicular to the other line 3x +8y = 4 so the slope will be inverse and negative for the line.

So the slope of the line will be -8 / 3

The equation of the line passing through the point will be given as:-

y - y 1 = m ( x- x1)

y - (-9) = ( -8 / 3) ( x - 8)

Y + 9 = ( -8 / 3 ) ( x -8 )

3 y = -8x + 165

3y + 8x = 165

Therefore the equation of the line will be 3y + 8x = 165.
