What is 17/5 as a mixed number in simplest form?

Note that you take out whatever can be a whole number, and leave the rest over the denominator

5 x 3 = 15

17 - 15 = 2

3 2/5 is your answer in simplest form (as it cannot be simplified anymore)

hope this helps

i you goofed up when writing this, because hnot is not a word minusf is not either. i cannot answer   because of that.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
