The equation of the polynomial function from the given table is; Option B: h(x) = x³ - 7x + 6

<h3>How to find the equation of a Polynomial?</h3>

From the given table, we see that the x-intercepts are;

(-3, 0), (1, 0) and (2, 0)

Now, we are told the the x-intercepts have a multiplicity of one which means they occur as roots only once. Thus, we can say that the roots in factor form are;

(x + 3), (x - 1), (x - 2)

Then, the polynomial will be;

h(x) = (x + 3) * (x - 1) * (x - 2)

h(x) = (x + 3)(x² - 3x + 2)

h(x) = x³ + 3x² - 3x² - 9x + 2x + 6

h(x) = x³ - 7x + 6

Thus, the equation of the polynomial function from the given table is; Option B: h(x) = x³ - 7x + 6

The glass fish tank does not have a cover. Find the total area of the glass panels used to make the tank.

pogonyaev

You will find the area of the 5 surfaces made of glass. There is a front, back, 2 sides, and the bottom. Each face is in the shape of a rectangle, so you will multiply the length by the width.
1. Front- 24 x 27 =648
Back-24 x 27 = 648
2. Side- 21 x 27 =567
Side - 21 x 27 = 567
3. Bottom - 21 x 24 = 504

Add all these together for your total amount of glass needed. The answer is 2934 square cm of glass.

Find the seventh term of the following sequence 2,6,18, and 54

enot [183]

This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 33 gives the next term. In other words, an=a1⋅rn−1an=a1⋅rn-1.

charla wants to determine the vertex of the function f(x)=x^2-18x+60 by changing the function into vertex form.

Vlad1618 [11]

$x^2-18x+60 =\\
x^2-18x+81-21=\\
(x-9)^2-21$

The vertex is $(9,-21)$

The Westins and the Shermans live in the same city and pay the same sales tax rate, and both families made $14,000 in taxable pu

Margarita [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

D. Yes, because the Shermans paid a higher percentage of their income in sales tax than the Westins did.

The Westins made $86,000 (high income)

The Shermans made $33,000 (low income)

But both paid the same sales tax rate of $14,000.

Regressive tax is applied uniformly and this causes lower-income people to pay a larger share of their income than rich people. It is not a fair way though it seems to be. Most regressive taxes are not income taxes.

How can you determine if a point is a solution to a system of linear equations? Please Help!

zhenek [66]

Answer:

You can substitute the x value of coordinate (x,y) in the equation. If the outcome = the y value in the coordinate (x,y), then you have determined it to be on the system of linear equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point P has a coordinates: ( Px , Py ).

You can choose which value is easy to substitute. Eighter start with the Py or you could start with the Px. It could save you time if you pick the right one for the job.

If you want to verify if any point is valid in any (linear) equation(s), you can:

a) substitute the x value of coordinate (x,y) in the equation, and if the outcome has the same value as y in the coordinate (x,y), then that point is a valid solution of the (linear) equation.

b) substitute the y value of coordinate (x,y) in the equation, and if the outcome has the same value as x in the coordinate (x,y), then that point is a valid solution of the (linear) equation.
