Answer:

The answer to your question is: This polynomial does not have root, it does not intercept the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

                                             2x² + 4x + 7

To determine the number of roots of this polinomial, just look at the higher power and that number will be the maximum possible number of roots.

In this exercise, the maximum power is 2, so this polynomial could have at most 2 roots.

b) Find the possible roots of the polynomial, which are multiples of 7

   Possible roots:  ±1, ±7

                                             2x² + 4x + 7

Use synthetic division to find the roots

                                   2     4     7       1

                                          2     6                              

                                   2     6    13                   +1 is not a root

                   

                                   2    4     7        -1

                                        -2    -2                  

                                   2    2    5                    -1 is not a root

                                  2     4     7         7

                                         14   126                  

                                  2     18  133                  +7 is not a root

                                  2     4     7        -7

                                        -14   70                  

                                  2    -10   -77              -7 is not a root

In ΔSTU, the measure of ∠U=90°, ST = 9.7 feet, and US = 4 feet. Find the measure of ∠T to the nearest degree.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Around 24 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

*Make sure calculator is on degree mode*

Try to draw out triangle--it helps

Need to use law of sines... this is where an angle and the side that opposes it are equal to each other. For example, Angle U is equal to 9.7

\frac{sin\alpha }{4} = \frac{sin90}{9.7}

Multiply 4 and sin90 and then divide the product by 9.7

Use sin^{-1} on calculator to convert the answer into degrees

Jorge and Mary are both filling cups with fruit punch in preparation for a party. After 3 minutes, Jorge had 53 cups left to be
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Mary is filling 36 cups per minute, which is faster than Jorge.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets get Jorge's time :

As the rate is constant, we can find the slope to know the number of cups he is filling per minute.

Slope is found using: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

= \frac{53-25}{5-3}

= \frac{28}{2}=14

From the table lets get Mary's time:

\frac{99-81}{1-0.5}

= \frac{18}{0.5}=36

Another data: \frac{63-45}{2-1.5}

=  \frac{18}{0.5}=36

Therefore, we can see that Mary is filling 36 cups in a minute and Jorge is filling 14 cups.

Hence, the correct answer is : Mary is filling 36 cups per minute, which is faster than Jorge.
