Answer:

To draw this graph, we start from the left in quadrant 3 drawing the curve to -4 on the x-axis to touch it but not cross. We continue back down and curve back around to cross the x-axis at -1. We continue up past -1 and curve back down to 5 on the x-axis. We touch here without crossing and draw the rest of our function heading back up. It should form a sideways s shape.


Step-by-step explanation:


A polynomials is an equation with many terms whose leading term is the highest exponent known as degree. The degree or exponent tells how many roots exist. These roots are the x-intercepts.


This polynomial has roots -4, -1, and 5. This means the graph must touch or cross through the x-axis at these x-values. What determines if it crosses the x-axis or the simple touch it and bounce back? The even or odd multiplicity - how many times the root occurs.


In this polynomial:


Root -4 has even multiplicity of 4 so it only touches and does not cross through.


Root -1 has odd multiplicity of 3 so crosses through.


Root 5 has even multiplicity of 6 so it only touches and does not cross through.


Lastly, what determines the facing of the graph (up or down) is the leading coefficient. If positive, the graph ends point up. If negative, the graph ends point down. All even degree graphs will have this shape.


To draw this graph, we start from the left in quadrant 3 drawing the curve to -4 on the x-axis to touch it but not cross. We continue back down and curve back around to cross the x-axis at -1. We continue up past -1 and curve back down to 5 on the x-axis. We touch here without crossing and draw the rest of our function heading back up. It should form a sideways s shape.

The weekly salary of a store manager includes a $30 bonus plus the number of hours the manager works multiplied by the managers
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Yes. The situation is defined by a linear function.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, The weekly salary of a store manager includes a $30 bonus plus the number of hours the manager works multiplied by the managers earnings per hour.  

Is this situation defined by a linear function?

Yes, the above given situation is defined by a linear function.

Now, let us see the linear equation for above situation

Let the number of hours worked by manager be "x", and cost per hour be "c" and total salary be "y"

Then, total salary is given as,

Total salary = $ 30 bonus + number of hours worked \times cost per hour

\rightarrow \mathrm{y}=30+\mathrm{x} \times \mathrm{c}\\\\ \rightarrow \mathrm{y}=\mathrm{c} \mathrm{x}+30

Above equation is a linear equation as "c" is constant ( cost per hour )

Hence, the given situation can be defined by linear function.

Answer:

it is -30

Step-by-step explanation:

you would divide both sides by x,then f=2

using PEMDAS we come to -30

HELPP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST<br> Solve for w x y THANK YOU
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

w=120°

x=45°

y=30°

Step-by-step explanation:

AT=PR, AR=PT

Therefore, y=30°

y+45°=x+30°

x=45°

In triangle:

y+30°+w=180°

w=120°

Hope it helps! :)
