Answer:

  • x-intercepts: -3, -2, -1, 1, 2
  • y-intercept: 12
  • symmetry: none

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- and y-intercepts are the points where the graph crosses the x- and y-axes, respectively. If an odd-degree polynomial function has any symmetry, it will be symmetrical about the origin.

<h3>X-intercepts</h3>

The graph shows crossings of the x-axis at -3, -2, -1, 1, and 2. These are the x-intercepts. Expressed as coordinate pairs, each will have a y-coordinate of zero:

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

<h3>Y-intercepts</h3>

If the function is not vertically scaled, the y-intercept of an odd-degree function will be the opposite of the product of the x-intercepts:

  -(-3)(-2)(-1)(1)(2) = 12

It will have an x-coordinate of zero:

  (0, 12) . . . y-intercept

A function can have at most 1 y-intercept.

<h3>Symmetry</h3>

There are two features of this graph that tell you it is an odd-degree function:

  1. the end behavior is in opposite directions
  2. there are an odd number of x-intercepts (x-axis crossings)

An odd-degree function will only be symmetrical about the origin. This function has more negative x-intercepts than positive ones, so is not symmetrical about the origin.

The graph has no symmetry.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Turning points without an x-axis-crossing on either side, or axis "touches" (not crossing) signify complex or even-multiplicity roots. The function will only be of odd degree if there are an odd number of x-axis crossings.

The end behavior of an odd-degree function will be in opposite directions: the infinity will match the sign of x if the leading coefficient is positive, or be opposite to the sign of x if the leading coefficient is negative.

5t=9y + 22 solve for y
inna [77]
Solve for y:
5 t = 9 y + 22
5 t = 9 y + 22 is equivalent to 9 y + 22 = 5 t:
9 y + 22 = 5 t
Subtract 22 from both sides:
9 y = 5 t - 22
Divide both sides by 9:
Answer:  y = (5 t)/9 - 22/9

Burger King sells burgers for $3.50 per burger. On Fridays, you can buy 2 burgers and get 1 free. They sold 500 burgers in 1 wee
faust18 [17]

Answer:

More information is needed, maximum weekly profit is $1750.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum profit would assume Burger King does not sell any burgers on Friday, therefore all 500 burgers were sold at $3.50. 500*$3.50 = $1750 in maximum earnings for the week. More information is needed about the split between the burgers sold over the week.

Maybe the question was trying to say 500 burgers were sold on Friday. In that case, assuming every customer got three burgers, 500/3 = 166.6 customers, rounding down because you cannot have half a customer, 166 customers on Friday. Each customer paid for two burgers 166*2*$3.50 = $1162 in earnings on Friday.
