Suppose the graph of a cubic polynomial function has the same zeroes and passes through the coordinate (0, –5).

Use the zeroes to determine the roots.

Write the polynomial as a product of the leading coefficient, a, and the factors, where each factor is x minus a root.

Use the y-intercept (0, –5) to solve for the leading coefficient.

Substitute the leading coefficient into the polynomial function for a and simplify.

Zeros are the x values which make the function equal to zero. Set it up as you would for a binomial with a constant multiplier "k" to account for the y-intercept (0, -5) given.

f(x) = k(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)

Use the y-intercept (0,-5) to solve for k.

-5 = k(0-2)(0-3)(0-5)
-5 = -30k
-5/-30 = k
1/6 = k


The cubic polynomial function is then ..

f(x) = (1/6)(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)
 

Linear factors are the linear (line) expressions you can factor out of the polynomial. They are (x-2), (x-3) and (x-5).

20. Based on student records, 25% of the students at a large high school have a
Elenna [48]

Answer:

(E) 0.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the event that a student has GPA of 3.5 or better, A' the event that a student has GPA lower than 3.5, B the event that a student is enrolled in at least one AP class and B' the event that a student is not taking any AP class.

So, the  probability that the student has a GPA lower than 3.5 and is not taking any AP  classes is calculated as:

P(A'∩B') = 1 - P(A∪B)

it means that the students that have a GPA lower than 3.5 and are not taking any AP  classes are the complement of the students that have a GPA of 3.5 of better or are enrolled in at least one AP class.

Therefore, P(A∪B) is equal to:

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

Where the probability P(A) that a student has GPA of 3.5 or better is 0.25, the probability P(B) that a student is enrolled in at least one AP class is 0.16 and the probability P(A∩B) that a student has a GPA of 3.5 or better and is enrolled  in at least one AP class is 0.12

So, P(A∪B) is equal to:

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

P(A∪B) = 0.25 + 0.16 - 0.12

P(A∪B) = 0.29

Finally, P(A'∩B') is equal to:

P(A'∩B') = 1 - P(A∪B)

P(A'∩B') = 1 - 0.29

P(A'∩B') = 0.71
