What is the equation of the polynomial function?

Answer:

f(x) = (1/2)(x-2)^2(x+1)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can determine this by looking at the zeroes of the graph. For any zero that goes through the x-axis, the power of that zero is odd. For any zero that that "bounces" from the x-axis, the power of that zero is even.

Starting from left to right, we can see that the first zero, -2, goes through the x-axis. That means (x+2) is raised to an odd power. The second zero, -1, also goes through, so (x+1) is raised to an odd power. The last zero, 2, bounces off the x-axis, so (x-2) is raised to an even power. The only functions that satisfy this criteria are function 1 and 2.

However, we are not done yet. We need to figure out which multiplier value (1/2, 1/4) is correct. To do this, we plug in 0 for x, since we know that the y-intercept is 4. When we plug in 0, we see that f(0) = 4 for the first function. Therefore, the first function is the answer.

Policeman A and Policeman B hand out 70 speeding tickets in a month.
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Policeman A = 56 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Policemen A + B = 70

If Policeman B hands out x no of tickets...

Then Policeman A hands out 4x no of tickets

meaning...

x + 4x = 70

5x = 70

x = 70/5

x = 14

Therefore Policeman A hands out..

4x = 4 × 14 = 56 tickets

What is m∠RST?<br><br> I need help on this please thank youuu
kkurt [141]
It’s an isoceles triangle so 180-64=116degrees = the sum of the other two equal angles in the triangle QRP and so angle QRP is 116÷2=58degrees, angles QRP and SRT are vertically opposite so they’re equal. The triangle SRT is also isosceles so 180-58= 122degrees = the sum of the last two equal base angles (including RST that you want to find) So lastly do 122÷2= 61degrees = angle RST

Ella swims four times a week at her clubs pool. She swims the same number of laps on Monday,Wednesday,Friday,and 15 laps on Satu
Reika [66]

She swims 12 laps on Monday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total laps = 51 laps

Laps on Saturday = 15 laps

Let,

x be the number of laps on Monday, Wednesday and Friday each.

According to given statement;

Monday+Wednesday+Friday+Saturday = 51

x+x+x+15=51\\3x=51-15\\3x=36

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{36}{3}\\x=12

She swims 12 laps on Monday.
