Sydney is going to a carnival that has games and rides. Each game costs $1.25 and each ride costs $2.25. Sydney spent $24.25 altogether at the carnival and the number of rides she went on is 3 more than the number of games she played. Determine the number of games Sydney played and the number of rides Sydney went on. Sydney played___games and went onrides rides.

number of games played is 5

number of rides road 8

Step-by-step explanation:

8 x 2.25=18

5 x 1.25=6..25

18 + 6.25=24.25

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!

actually what is a question i don't understand
