Astudent reads at a rate of 16 pages per day which ordered pair would be on a graph of its relationship

I found the choices that should have been included in this problem.
a) (1.5,26)
b) (2.25,30)
c) (5.5,88)
d) (7.25,110)

y = 16x
choice a. y = 16(1.5) = 24
choice b. y = 16(2.25) = 36
choice c. y = 16(5.5) = 88
choice d. y = 16(7.25) = 116

The correct answer is choice c. (5.5, 88)

Ithink the answer is d.

Hello!

the correct option is:

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

why?

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!
