Answer quick plz Zachary used the calculations shown to find how much he would spend on 16 ounces of pistachios.

6 ounces of pistachios cost $7.50
StartFraction 7 dollars and 50 cents Over 6 ounces EndFraction = StartFraction dollar-sign question mark Over 1 ounce EndFraction
Unit price = $0.80 per ounce

What was his first error?
The price per ounce should have been $45.00 per ounce.
The price per ounce should have been $1.25 per ounce.
The final cost should have been $20.00.
The final cost should have been $16.80.

The price per ounce should have been $1.25 per ounce.

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

1. when "a" is a root of a polynomial, (x -a) is a factor of it. for the three roots given, the factors of the desired polynomial are (x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3).

in order to make the leading coefficient be negative, we need to multiply this product by a negative number. any negative number will do, but we choose a small (magnitude) value that will eliminate the fraction: -2.

then

f(x) = -2(x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3) = -(x +2)(2x -1)(x -3)

= -(2x² +3x -2)(x -3)

= -(2x³ -3x² -11x +6)

f(x) = -2x³ +3x² +11x -6

2. a graph created by the desmos on-line graphing calculator is shown, and the zeros are highlighted.

3. as indicated in part 1, the multiplier of this equation can be anything and the zeros will remain the same. you want a negative leading coefficient, so the "anything" is restricted to any of the infinite number of numbers that will make that be the case.
