According to the graph, the amount of gasoline after 16 hours is 0 gallons. ⇒ Jet has to land to refuel after 15 hours of flying.
An animal park has lions, tigers and zebras. 20% of the animals are lions and half of the animals are zebras. If there are 120 a
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of lions
y ----> the number f tigers
z ----> the number of zebras
we know that
----> equation A
Remember that
To find out the number of lions, multiply the total animals by the percentage of lions
To find out the number of zebras, multiply the total animals by the percentage of zebras
Substitute the value of x and the value of z in equation A and solve for y

If there are real roots to be found for this polynomial, the Rational Root Theorem and synthetic division are the best way to find them. I teach from a book that uses c and d for the possible roots of the polynomial. C is our constant, 2, and d is the leading coefficient, 1. The factors of 2 are +/- 1 and +/-2. The factors for 1 are +/-1 only. Meaning, in all, there are 4 possibilities as roots for this polynomial. But there are only 3 total (because our polynomial is a third degree), so we have to find the first one, at least, from our possibilities above. Let's try x = -1, factor form (x + 1). If there is no remainder when we do the synthetic division, then -1 is a root. Put -1 outside the "box" and the coefficients from the polynomial inside: -1 (1 2 -1 -2). Bring down the first coefficient of 1 and multiply it by the -1 outside to get -1. Put that -1 up under the 2 and add to get 1. Multiply 1 times the -1 to get -1 and put that -1 up under the -1 and add to get -2. -1 times -2 is 2, and -2 + 2 = 0. So we have our first root of (x+1). The numbers we get when we do the addition along the way are the coefficients of our new polynomial, the depressed polynomial (NOT a sad one cuz it hates math, but a new polynomial that is one degree less than that of which we started!). The new polynomial is 
. That can also be factored to find the remaining 2 roots. Use standard factoring to find that the other 2 solutions are (x+2) and (x-1). Our solutions then are x = -2, -1, 1, choice B from above.
