Maya took a taxi from her house to the airport. The taxi company charged a pick-up fee of $1.90 plus $4.50 per mile. The total fare was $24.40, not including the tip.
Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine m, the number of miles
in the taxi ride.

8

step-by-step explanation:

just put √(2) * √(32) into a calculator. that will make the answer be 8.

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!
