Could the equation. For the graph of the function have degree 4?explain

The graphed polynomial seems to have a degree of 2, so the degree can be 4 and not 5.

<h3>Could the graphed function have a degree 4?</h3>

For a polynomial of degree N, we have (N - 1) changes of curvature.

This means that a quadratic function (degree 2) has only one change (like in the graph).

Then for a cubic function (degree 3) there are two, and so on.

So. a polynomial of degree 4 should have 3 changes. Naturally, if the coefficients of the powers 4 and 3 are really small, the function will behave like a quadratic for smaller values of x, but for larger values of x the terms of higher power will affect more, while here we only see that as x grows, the arms of the graph only go upwards (we don't know what happens after).

Then we can write:

y = a*x^4 + c*x^2 + d

That is a polynomial of degree 4, but if we choose x^2 = u

y = a*u^2 + c*u + d

So it is equivalent to a quadratic polynomial.

Then the graph can represent a function of degree 4 (but not 5, as we can't perform the same trick with an odd power).

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sir in the graph every point is (X,Y) so you should choose consecutive random numbers for the X values for the first point after that put the values you choose In the equations so now you have just numbers in the equation .. add, subtract and multiply at the end you will get a value .. ok this Y for the first point .. mark this point on the graph and continued this process until it reached at least 3 points, and connected between them.

Note : do this with each equation separately and do not connecte between two points for two different equations

the equation with x will become as line

the equation with x² will become as arch

after you finsh drwaing see the points that the tow equation are touching within and write them. Usually it is two points

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

(80.4942, 94.9052)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample mean is x = 87.7.

The sample standard deviation is s = 11.26.

At 99% confidence and 19 degrees of freedom, the critical value is t = 2.861.

The confidence interval is:

x ± t (s/√n)

87.7 ± 2.861 (11.26 / √20)

87.7 ± 7.2053

(80.4947, 94.9053)
