Answer:

The y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

$f(x)=(x-6)(x-2)$

At y-axis the value of x is 0.

Substitute x=0 in the given function to find the y-intercept of the function.

$f(0)=(0-6)(0-2)$

On simplification, we get

$f(0)=(-6)(-2)$

$f(0)=12$

The graph of function intersect y-axis at (0,12).

Therefore the y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) is 12.

Find a polynomial f(x) of degree 3 that has the following zeros.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

$f (x) = x (x + 5) (x-9)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of the polynomial are all the values of x for which the function $f (x) = 0$

In this case we know that the zeros are:

$x = 9,\ x-9 =0$

$x = 0$

$x = -5$ , $x + 5 = 0$

Now we can write the polynomial as a product of its factors

$f (x) = x (x + 5) (x-9)$

Note that the polynomial is of degree 3 because the greatest exponent of the variable x that results from multiplying the factors of f (x) is 3

What is the period of the graph of the equation y = a sin bx?

steposvetlana [31]

T=2π/|b|. The period of an equation of the form y = a sin bx is T=2π/|b|.

In mathematics the curve that graphically represents the sine function and also that function itself is called sinusoid or sinusoid. It is a curve that describes a repetitive and smooth oscillation. It can be represented as y(x) = a sin (ωx+φ) where a is the amplitude, ω is the angular velocity with ω=2πf, (ωx+φ) is the oscillation phase, and φ the initial phase.

The period T of the sin function is T=1/f, from the equation ω=2πf we can clear f and substitute in T=1/f.

f=ω/2π

Substituting in T=1/f:

T=1/ω/2π -------> T = 2π/ω

For the example y = a sin bx, we have that a is the amplitude, b is ω and the initial phase φ = 0. So, we have that the period T of the function a sin bx is:

T=2π/|b|
