The value 5 is a an upper bound for the zeros of the function shown below f(x)=x^4+x^3-11x^2-9x+18 a. true b. false

Answer to this question is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the function:

 is attached to the answer.

Clearly by looking at the graph we could see that the zeros of the function f(x) are -3, -2, 1 and 3.

All the zeros are distinct.

" Also upper bound of a number 'p' means the set of all those numbers which are greater than 'p' ".

Here 5 will be an upper bound for the zeros of the function f(x) since all the 4 zeros of f(x) are less than 5.

Hence, the given statement that the value 5 is an upper bound for the zeros of the function f(x) is TRUE.

(a) the volume of the cone is 20/3 in3

hence, option a is correct.
