Answer:
x-intercepts = 1,2, and 4, y-intercept = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 - 7x^2 - 14x - 8 in factored form is equal to (x-1)(x-2)(x-4).
Solving for x-intercepts:
- We are actually able to solve for all x-intercepts without the given factor. But since we are given one of the factors, our job becomes much easier.
- Using synthetic division, or long division, we factor out the x-intercept 4. Which leaves us with the polynomial x^2 - 3x + 2.
- From here we can separate the polynomial into two binomials.
- x^2 - 3x + 2 = (x-1)(x-2). Giving us all 3 x-intercepts.
- Using Descartes' rules we can identify before even starting the problem how many real x-intercepts there are (Not needed for this problem).
Solving for y-intercept:
- The y-intercept is always the coefficient that does not have any assigned x-variables.
- The coefficient is -8, thus the y-intercept.
- If unsure of the y-intercept, you can always plug in x = 0. Solving for the y-intercept will give you the value of f(0).
- If there is no coefficient, the y-intercept is equal to zero.
Answer:
It is 6.5 meters
The centimeter practical unit of length for many everyday measurements. A centimeter is equal to 0.01(or 1E-2) meter.
Answer:
The probability is 
Step-by-step explanation:
We can divide the amount of favourable cases by the total amount of cases.
The total amount of cases is the total amount of ways to put 8 rooks on a chessboard. Since a chessboard has 64 squares, this number is the combinatorial number of 64 with 8, 
For a favourable case, you need one rook on each column, and for each column the correspondent rook should be in a diferent row than the rest of the rooks. A favourable case can be represented by a bijective function 
with A = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}. f(i) = j represents that the rook located in the column i is located in the row j.
Thus, the total of favourable cases is equal to the total amount of bijective functions between a set of 8 elements. This amount is 8!, because we have 8 possibilities for the first column, 7 for the second one, 6 on the third one, and so on.
We can conclude that the probability for 8 rooks not being able to capture themselves is
