There are 40 people in a choir. Half of the people in the choir are women.
The number of women in the choir is 5 times the number of
men in the choir.
The rest of the people in the choir are children.
the number of
children in the
choir
:

men in the choir
n : 1
Work out the value of n.

n =

9514 1404 393

  n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Of the 40 people, half are women, so there are 20 women.

There are 5 times as many women as men, so 20/5 = 4 are men.

The remainder are children, so there are 20-4 = 16 children.

The ratio of children to men is ...

  children : men = 16 : 4 = 4 : 1 = n : 1 . . . . . . . . remove a factor of 4 from 16:4

The value of n is 4.

answer: b. f(x) = (x + 2)^3 (x^2 - 7x + 3)^4

step-by-step explanation:

polynomials always have as many roots as their order. this is a 4th order polynomial- hence 4 roots!

complex roots of polynomials always come in pairs. the quadratic equation has the "+/-" in that will alwaysgenerate m+ni amd m-ni, so 7-2i must be a root of this polynomial equation.

the order of the numerator and denominator are both 2. so the horizontal asymptote is y=a2/b2 =7

verticle asymptotes are the forbidden x-values. f(x) becomes undefined at x=-3 because this value will cause a zero denominator.

a graph of r(x) will have vertical asymptotes at ±1 because these values will make the denominator zero. so the domain of the function cannot include ±1.
