Michael decided to make French toast. He finds a recipe that calls for the following ingredients: FRENCH TOAST
12 slices of bread
4 eggs
1 cup of milk
1 teaspoon of cinnamon

Michael makes a single recipe and shares the food equally among himself AND his six family members. How many slices of French toast does each person receive?

Each person gets 2 slices of French toast.

Each person gets 5/2 slices of French toast.

Each person gets 1 5/7 slices of French toast.

Each person gets 1/2 slice of French toast.

Each person gets 12 slices of French toast.

Each person gets 5 slices of French toast.

Hm. I'd have to say 2 each. Because the recipe calls for 12 pieces of bread, and 12 divided among 6 is 2.

answer: b

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!
