If f(x) = ax^6 + bx^4 + cx^3 where a, b, and c are integers, how many distinct rational zeros could f(x) have

You can rewrite your function as

This implies that

Now, we have , so it counts as a solution.

On the other hand, depending on the coefficient a, b and c, the cubic equation

can have either one or three solutions.

So, we have the solution x=0, and then one or three solutions coming from the cubic part. The equation as a whole thus have either two or four solutions, depending on the coefficients.

the answer is c just got it on ed

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
