Part A: What type of function, linear or exponential, would be best to describe the value of the investment over a fixed number of years using Option A? Explain your answer. Part B: Write a function, a(t), to describe the value of the investment, in dollars, of Option A after t years.

Part C: What type of function, linear or exponential, would be best to describe the value of the investment over a fixed number of years using Option B? Explain your answer.

Part D: Write a function, b(t), to describe the value of the investment, in dollars, of Option B after t years.

Part E: Bridgette wants to invest in whichever option would increase her investment value by the greatest amount in 20 years. Will there be any significant difference in the value of Bridgette's investment after 20 years if she uses Option A over Option B? Explain your answer, and show the investment value after 20 years for each option.

what "following statement"?

step-by-step explanation:

they would have to work 32 hours.

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!
