Brad has a garden with dimensions 12 feet long x 7 feet wide. He wants to enlarge the garden to an area of 119 square feet. How much farther will he need to extend the length of the garden to attain his desired area?

f(x) = x^3 -2x^2 -3x

x( x^2 -2x-3)

x( x^2 +x -3x -3)

x( x(x+1) -3(x+1))

x( x-3)( x+1)

so zeroes are 0, 3,-1

its (2) option

i think you would have to divide the money he had saved, which is $2,000 by the time he plans on exercising which is 40 hours, and the answer you get should tell you the answer to your question.

can you expand on the question i may be able to

the formula for converting absorbance to transmittance goes as:

a = log (1/t)  a = 2 - log(%t)  10^a = 1/t  t = 10^-a  %t = 100(10^-a)

so at the given value of a,   a = 1.5

%t = 100(10^-1.5)

%t = 3.16%
