The first step to solving this is to split the equation into the possible cases. when the product of factors equals 0, at least one of these factors is 0.
n - 1 = 0
n + 6 = 0
n + 5 = 0
now you need the equations for n
n = 1
n = -6 
n = -5
this tells us that the final solutions are the following:
n = -6, n = -5, n = 1

Answer:
1, -6 and -5 

Explanation:
To solve the equation means to get the values of n which satisfy the given equation.
The equation given is:
(n-1) (n+6) (n+5) = 0
This equation will be true if any of the terms (brackets) is equal to zero.
This means that:
either n-1 = 0 .............> n = 1
or n + 6 = 0 ................> n = -6
or n + 5 = 0 ................> n = -5

Hope this helps :)

The line with the equation 4/5x +1/3y=1 is graphed one the xy-plane. What is the x-coordinate of the x-intercept of the line?
leva [86]

Answer:

x = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept looks like (x, 0); the coordinate 0 indicates that the point lies on the x-axis.  If we start with 4/5x + 1/3 y= 1 and let y = 0, we will get an equation for the x-intercept:

(4/5)x + (1/3)(0) =1

Then 4/5x = 1, and (5/4)(4/5)x = (1)(4/5).

Thus, x = 4/5, and the x-intercept is (4/5, 0).

a city us growing at the rate of 0.9% annually. if there were 3619000 residents in yhe city in 1994, find how many to the neares
BlackZzzverrR [31]
For this case we have the following equation:
 y = 3619000 (2.7) ^ 0.009t
 We must evaluate the equation for the year 2000.
 Therefore, we must replace the following value of t:
 t = 2000 - 1994
 t = 6
 Substituting we have:
 y = 3619000 (2.7) ^ (0.009 * 6)
 y = 3818407.078
 Round to the nearest ten thousand:
 y = 3820000
 Answer:
 
3820000 residents are living in that city in 2000

A rectangular prism has a length of 4.2 cm, a width of 5.8 cm, and a height of 9.6 cm. A similar prism has a length of 14.7 cm,
grigory [225]

Answer: 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Dimensions of larger prism = length of  4.2 cm, a width of 5.8 cm, and a height of 9.6 cm.

Dimensions of smaller prism = length of 14.7 cm, a width of 20.3 cm, and a height of 33.6 cm.

Scale factor = \dfrac{\text{Size of image}}{\text{Size of original figure}}

Since, smaller figure is the original figure and the bigger one is the image.

So, scale factor = \dfrac{14.7}{4.2}=3.5  [Taking lengths

Hence, the factor to produce the corresponding dimensions of the larger prism = 3.5
