Answer:

The zeros are -1/2, 1/3 and 2.

The factors are (x - 2)(3x - 1)(2x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x)= 6x^3 - 11x² - 3x + 2 = 0

As the last term is 2 we try to see if +/-1 or +/- 2 are zeros

f(1) = -6, f(-1) = -18 so they are not zeros.

f(2) = 6*8 - 11*4 - 3(2) + 2

= 48 - 44 - 6 + 2

= 4 - 6 + 2

= 0.

So x = 2 is a zero and x - 2 is a factor.

Dividing by x - 2:

x - 2 ) 6x^3 - 11x² - 3x + 2 ( 6x^2 + x - 1 <--------Quotient

6x^3 - 12x^2

x^2 - 3x

x^2 - 2x

- x+ 2

-x + 2

Factoring the quotient:

6x^2 + x - 1

= (3x - 1)(2x + 1) = 0

x = 1/3, x = -1/2..

Ariel left her home at 9 a.m., driving at 45 mph. At 11 a.m. her brother left the home and started after her at 60 mph. At what

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Her brother catch her at 11 am + 4hour = 15 p.m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ;

Speed of Ariel = 45 mph

She left home at 9 a.m

Her brother speed = 60 mph

Her brother left home at 11 a.m

Now from question So As Ariel speed is 45 mph so, after two hours pass , she ahead 90 m .

As her brother travel as 60 mph ,so he travel at ( 60 - 45 )= 15 mph faster

So, with this speed her brother will catch up her at $\frac{90}{15}$ = after 4 hour .

Hence her brother catch her at 11 am + 4hour = 15 p.m Answer

780 students stand in rows and columns. each row has an equal number of students and each column has an equal number of students

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of rows

780=x(x+4)

$780=x^{2} +4x$

$x^{2} +4x-780=0\\(x+26)(x-30)=0\\x=30 \\x\neq -26\\$

there are 26 rows and 30 students in each row 26*30=780

Isabella filled her pool with water at a constant rate.

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The size of Isabella's pool is 220 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the size of Isabella's pool be $x$ liters, $R$ be the rate of fill, $t$ be the time of fill and $V$ be the volume of water filled in the pool.

As the rate of fill is constant,

Therefore, volume of water filled in the pool can be given as,

$V= Rt$

Volume of water left is given as $x-V=x-Rt$

From the table,

Volume of water left after $t=2$ minutes is 184 liters.

So, $x-R(2)=184\\x-2R=184$ -------- 1

Volume of water left after $t=12$ minutes is 4 liters.

So, $x-R(12)=4\\x-12R=4$ ------------2

Multiply equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by -1, we get

$6x-12R=1104\\-x+12R=-4$

Now, we add the above equations, we get

$(6x-x)+(12R-12R)=1104-4\\5x=1100\\x=\frac{1100}{5}=220$

Therefore, the size of Isabella's pool is 220 liters.

A person died leaving property worth rs.4000.40. His widow get 0.125 of the property and his son got 0.4 of the remainder. What

belka [17]

Answer:

Widow's Share = Rs 500.05

Son's share = Rs 1400.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Property = 4000.40

Widow get share = 0.125

So, Share of Widow = 0.125 * 4000.40

Widow's Share = Rs 500.05

Remaining Property = 4000.40 - 500.05

Remaining Property = 3500.35

Son's share = 0.4 * 3500.35

Son's share = Rs 1400.14
