The function f(x) = −x2 − 7x + 30 shows the relationship between the vertical distance of a diver from a pool's surface f(x), in feet, and the horizontal distance x, in feet, of a diver from the diving board. what is a zero of f(x), and what does it represent?

x = 10; the diver hits the water 10 feet away horizontally from the board
x = 3; the diver hits the water 3 feet away horizontally from the board
x = 10; the diver jumps in the pool at 10 feet per second
x = 3; the diver jumps in the pool at 3 feet per second

:i need some real : a store sells shirts to the public at one pricing scale and wholesale at another pricing scale. the tables below describe the cost, y, of x shirts. (after tables) how do the slopes of the lines created by each table compare? the slope of the public table is 3/4 of the slope of the wholesale table.the slope of the wholesale table is 3/4 of the slope of the public table.the slope of the public table is 12 times greater than the slope of the wholesale table.the slope of the wholesale table is 12 times greater than the slope of the public table.
