Since polynomials are used to describe curves of various types, people use them in the real world to graph curves. For example, roller coaster designers may use polynomials to describe the curves in their rides. Combinations of polynomial functions are sometimes used in economics to do cost analyses.

The answer is B ! Hope this helps !
Answer:
a. The slope is 5/4
b. The equation in slope and intercept form is y = 5/4·x + 12
c. The base cost of making a fruit juice is $12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that gives the cost in dollars of making your own fruit juice is given as follows;
y - 2 = 5/4·(x + 8)
a. The slope = The coefficient of x = 5/4
The slope = 5/4
b. The equation can be presented in slope and intercept form, y = m·x + c, as follows;
y - 2 = 5/4·(x + 8)
y = 5/4·x + 10 + 2
y = 5/4·x + 12
c. The base cost of making a fruit juice = The cost added to any quantity of fruit, x made = The y-intercept, c = 12
The base cost of making a fruit juice = $12.
You need to get x by itself. Add 6 to both sides.
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Let ABC be an isosceles triangle with sides AC and BC of equal length.
We need to prove that the medians AD and BE are of equal length.
Consider the triangles ADC and BEC.
They have two congruent sides that include congruent angles.
Indeed, AC = BC by the condition, because the triangle ABC is isosceles.
Since the lateral sides AC and BC are of equal length, their halves EC
and DC are of equal length too: EC = DC.
Finally, the angle ECD is the common angle.
Thus, the triangles ADC and BEC are congruent, in accordance to the
postulate P1 (SAS) (see the lesson Congruence tests for triangles of the
topic Triangles in the section Geometry in this site).
Hence, the medians AD and BE are of equal length as the corresponding sides
of these triangles.
The proof is completed.
