A local ice creamery gave the principal of the high school 295 ice cream certificates, good for a huge order of ice cream, to be awarded to any
student with a B average or better. As it happened, 297 students had at
least a B average. Since there were 2 more students than ice cream
certificates, the principal started a long, agonizing process of giving
them out and determining who didn't get one. Each day the principal
chose 3 students at random. If all 3 were freshmen, they were each
awarded a certificate. If 2 of the 3 were sophomores, the principal
awarded the certificates to the 2 sophomores and put the third's name
back in the hat. If all 3 were from a different class, he awarded all 3.
If any other combination of students was selected, no certificates were
awarded that day and the names went back in the hat. At the end of
many days, there were only two B-average students left who had not
received a certificate. At the beginning there had been 101 freshmen,
99 sophomores, and 97 juniors. From which class were the two
remaining students?

#15. square

step-by-step explanation:

because quadrilatural (idk how to spell it) means somthing that is not 3d or like, equal sides (or somthing like that   you know what i meanz)

hope this halps!

bai!

there is no points to select.

step-by-step explanation:

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!
