Answer:
The solution is in the image
Answer: D
Explanation:
Since we don't know the y-value of the vertex, let's do this an easy way: plugging in.
Let's use the y intercept since that would be the easiest. Since x=0, the terms with x cancel, and you will get a leading result of -5
A) results in 2, so eliminate it
B) results in -2, so eliminate it
C) results in 5, so eliminate it
D) results in -5, so keep it
Since D was the only one that worked, that is our correct answer.
Mulitpilicty is how many times a root repeats
factor
factor x first
x(2x^2+x-1)
using math
(x)(x+1)(2x-1)
no roots repeat
if it is equal to 0 then the roots are
0 multiplicty 1
-1 multiplicty 1
1/2 multiplicty 1
If you have a graphing calculator one way to know you are right is put the left side in Y1 and the right side in Y2 then hit 2nd trace and intersection then find the intersection and the X value is your answer. If you don't have a graphing calculator then I'm sorry
