a,b,c-\ sides\ of\ triangle\\\\a+b+c=18\ inches\\\\a=8inch\\\\\frac{b}{c}=\frac{2}{3}\\\\3b=2c\ \ --->b=\frac{2c}{3}\\\\8+\frac{2c}{3}+c=18\ |*3\\\\24+2c+3c=54\\\\5c=54-24\\\\5c=30\\\\c=\frac{30}{5}=6\\\\Length\ of\ shorter\ side\ is\ equal\ to\ 6\ inches.

For the given graph, a. describe the end behavior,
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The end behavior is basically how the function behaves as it approaches negative or positive infinity.

As the function approaches negative infinity, we can see that the graph is going up. In other words:

f(x)\rightarrow\infty\text{ as }x\rightarrow-\infty

As the function approaches positive infinity, we can see that the graph is going down. In other words:

f(x)\rightarrow-\infty\text{ as }x\rightarrow\infty

B)

In even-degree polynomials, both ends of the graph will be going the same way. In this graph, the two ends are going opposite ways so this is an odd-degree function.

C)

The number of real zeros is simply the amount of times the graph crosses the x-axis. In the graph, the function does this three times. Thus, the number of real zeros is 3.
