2009
home valued at $200,000
home valued at $180,000
mortgage of $30,000
home equity loan of $18,000
car valued at $25,000
car valued at $18,000
car loan of $8,000
boat valued at $20,000

personal loan of $5,000

Based on the table, which of the following is true?
a.
From 2005 to 2009, both assets and liabilities decreased.
b.
From 2005 to 2009, both assets and liabilities increased.
c.
From 2005 to 2009, assets decreased and liabilities increased.
d.
From 2005 to 2009, assets increased and liabilities decreased.

no

step-by-step explanation:

- (2, -7)

- lines r and s and lines t and u must be parallel

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!

c = 0.429t

step-by-step explanation:

the constant rate at which carlos harvests cassava is 35 minutes per 15 cassavas 15/35 = 0.429 cassava per minute

therefore, an equation that models the number of cassava (c) that harvest carlos in a time (t) is the following:

where t is the time in minutes.

this means that when 35 minutes have elapsed 15 cassava have been harvested, at 70 minutes 30 cassava have been harvested and so on.
