<span>The number of x-intercepts that appear on the graph of the function
</span>f(x)=(x-6)^2(x+2)^2 is two (2): x=6 (multiplicity 2) and x=-2 (multiplicity 2)
Solution
x-intercepts:
f(x)=0→(x-6)^2 (x+2)^2 =0
Using that: If a . b =0→a=0 or b=0; with a=(x-6)^2 and b=(x+2)^2
(x-6)^2=0
Solving for x. Square root both sides of the equation:
sqrt[ (x-6)^2] = sqrt(0)→x-6=0
Adding 6 both sides of the equation:
x-6+6=0+6→x=6 Multiplicity 2
(x+2)^2=0
Solving for x. Square root both sides of the equation:
sqrt[ (x+2)^2] = sqrt(0)→x+2=0
Subtracting 2 both sides of the equation:
x+2-2=0-2→x=-2 Multiplicity 2
first you have to add the -4 to the -2 and you get 2. so 2x=2 then you divide 2 by 2x and get x=1
Answer:
Multiply the numbers until you get the same denominator (Bottom number) for both fractions. I will do #1 to show you.
1/3 1/2
Both 3 and 2 go into 6, so I will use that.
When multiplying the bottom , you have to do the same to the top, so...
2/6 OR 3/6
3/6 is greater, so that is the answer.
Therefore, 1/2 is more
Another way you can do this is to draw a pizza, a section off parts of it according to the fractions.
Hope this helped.
hello i see that no one has answered your question yet well im here to help:)
(1,-19),(-2,-7)
so here one way you can find the slope
i usually always use this to help me to keep it in order
------------------
(X1,Y1)(X2,Y2)
X2-X1
Y2-Y1
use this and your garanteed to get the right answer everytime
------------------
X = -2 – 1 = -3
Y = -7 – -19 = 12
once you do that you divide if possible
12/-3
which gives you -4
so your answer is -4
its really not hard you just got to get use to it
hope it help you:)
The answer is 0
The formula is
n!/ r!(n-r)!
4!/ 9!(4-9)!
