Arecovering heart attack patient is told to get on a regular walking program. the patient is told to walk a distance of 5 km the first week, 8 km the second week, 11 km the third week and so on for a period of 10 weeks. at that point the patient is to maintain the distance walked during the 10th week. how far will the patient walk during the 10th week? a. is the sequence arithmetic or geometric? explain your answer.

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

the answer is a beach is the best place to be

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!
