Answer:
f(x) = 0.43 *
*
*(x + 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a 6th degree polynomial f(x)
r = 3 is a root of f with multiplicity 2
r = 1 is a root of f with multiplicity 3
f(-5) = -29721.6
f(-10) = 0
Then: f(x) = a*((x -3)^2 ) * ((x - 1)^3)*(x + 10)
f(-5) = a * (-8)^2 * (-6)^3 * (5) = -29,721.6
a* (64) * (-216)* 5 = -29,721.6
-a*69,120 = -29,721.6
a = -29,721.6/-69,120
a = 0.43
so
f(x) = 0.43 *
*
*(x + 10)
Yes, both of your answers are correct.
Since Death Valley is below sea level, the hiker increases altitude before stopping at 0 feet.
Percent of increase is given by the formula (amount of change)/(original amount) * 100. Your work is accurate.
Given the quadratic function, to get the roots we factorize:
3x²-4x-7=0
3x²+3x-7x-7=0
3x(x+1)-7(x+1)=0
(3x-7)(x+1)=0
thus the roots are
x=-1 or x=3/7
thus the sum of the roots will be:
-1+3/7
=-4/7
For problems like this we can use algebra to help us, the farenheight 6 hours ago was:
(2xt)-6=-20
We have to balance the sides out, first we minus 6
2xt=-26
Now we can divide by 2
t=-13
We now know the temperature 6 hours ago was -13

Answer: Q = 8</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
The left hand side of the first equation is x-3y
The left hand side of the second equation is 2x-6y = 2(x-3y). Note how it's simply double of the first expression x-3y
If we multiply both sides of the first equation by 2, we get
x-3y = 4
2(x-3y) = 2*4
2x-6y = 8
Meaning that 2x-6y = 8 is equivalent to x-3y = 4. Both produce the same line leading to infinitely many solutions. Each solution will lay along the line x-3y = 4.
We can say each solution is in the set {(x,y): x-3y = 4}
Which is the same as saying each solution is of the form (3y+4,y)
