Answer:

Touches at -3 and crosses at 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(2x-7)^7 (x+3)^4 is given

To find x intercepts:

for x intercepts the value of f(x) =0

Hence f(x)=(2x-7)^7 (x+3)^4=0

Solving we get

2x-7 =0 or x+3 =0

x = 3.5 or x=-3

Thus we find the zeroes of the polynomial of f(x) are 3.5 and -3.

3.5 has a multiplicity of 7 and -3 a multiplicity of 4

Since 7 is odd, i.e. 3.5 has a multiplicity of odd number, hence f(x) crosses x axis at x 3.5

Since -3 has a multiplicity of an even number 4, we find that the curve touches x axis at the point -3.

What exponential function is the best fit for the data in the table?
gogolik [260]
Answer: fourth option

\frac{1}{4} 4^{x-1}-4

Explanation:

1) the pair x = 3 f(x) = 0, leads you to probe this:

f(3) = 0 = A [4 ^ (3 - 1) ] + C = 0

=> A [4^2] = - C

A[16] = - C

if A = 1/4

16 / 4 = 4 => C = - 4

That leads you to the function f(x) = [1/4] 4 ^( x - 1) - 4

2) Now you verify the images for that function for all the x-values of the table:

x = 2 => f(2) + [1/4] 4 ^ (2 - 1) - 4 = [1/4] 4 - 4 = 4 / 4 - 4 = 1 - 4 = - 3 => check

x = 3 => f(3) = [1/4] 4^ (3 - 1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^2 - 4 = 16 / 4 - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0 => check

x = 4 -> f(4) = [1/4] 4^ (4-1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^(3) - 4 = (4^3) / 4 - 4 = 4^2 - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 => check.

Therefore, you have proved that the answer is the fourth option.

In a game experience, the level of monsters, L, is measured by the formula L=25M/E , where M= the number of monsters, and E= the
timama [110]

Answer:

E = \frac{25M}{L}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can multiple each side by E and then divide each side by L:

L*E=\frac{25M}{E}*E\\ L*E=25M\\\frac{L*E}{L}=\frac{25M}{L}\\ E = \frac{25M}{L}

Item 8

So, I didn't quite understand your question clearly, but I'll try my best to answer it.

So, the first question is quite simple: Did the runner have a % decrease in his time or an increase.
Well, 7:45 is minor than 5:51. So, his time decreased.

2nd question:
The percent of change. Well, first things first 7:45 has 2 different units, wich are minutes and seconds, I suppose. Same goes for 5:51.
So let's put everything in seconds. multiply both the 7 and 5 for 60(for every minute has 60 seconds.)

That means:
7*60= 420+45 = 465.
5*60=300+51=351.

Now, let's do the math itself:
465 -> 100%
351 -> x%
 Is equal to about  75,5%
How much did it decrease then?
(75,5-100)%= 24,5%, approximately
