Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

if multiply the 3 factors together you get

(x² - x - 2)(x - 3) - trinomial x binomial

x³ - 3x²- x² + 3x - 2x + 6 - polynomial

x³ - 4x² + x + 6, this is the polynomial with those factors.

Poly means many so it could be a bigger polynomial with more factors but if it is limited to only these factors than there is just the one polynomial.

Answer:

S.I= 640

Step-by-step explanation:

I=prt

where p= $8,000

and r= 4%

and t= 2 years

$8,000×4%×2

8,000×4/100×2

80×4×2

=640

Therefore The S.I = 640.

Answer:

The function is 200+50t (t= # of months)

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this is to look at the question, and see no matter what, we have to pay 200 dollars to start. After which, they charge 50 bucks a month. Knowing this, we can make a function using f(x). Let C(t)= cost. Included is that graph. So for these questions, we need to see that there is an independent and a dependent variable, and we need to see that cost is affected by time. Hope this helps.
