Area of the square bottom = L x W = 5 x 5 = 25 square cm
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 5 x 6 = 15 square cm
Total area = 25 + 15 = 40 square cm.
If this is what you mean then the degree of the polynomial would be 3 since 3 is the highest exponent of all the terms.
1. Find the derivative of <span>P(x)=3x^3+2x^2-6x. It's P'(x)=9x^2 + 4x - 6.
2. Set this result equal to zero and solve for the critical values:
</span> 9x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0 Using the quadratic formula, I got
x = [-4 plus or minus sqrt(232)] / 18. Reducing this,
x = [-4 plus or minus 2 sqrt(58)]; thus, there are two real, unequal roots and two real, unequal critical values.
3. One at a time, examine the two critical values: determine whether the derivative changes from neg to pos or from pos to neg at each of these values. Example: If the derivative is pos to the left of the first c. v. and neg to the right, we've got a local max.
4. Since there are only 2 critical values, you can have no more than 1 local max (corresponding to a change in the sign of the derivative from pos to neg) and one local min. (from neg to pos).

Answer:
(- 2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution of the graphed system is the point of intersection of the 2 lines.
This occurs in the second quadrant where the x- coordinate is negative and the y- coordinate positive.
A reasonable estimate is therefore (- 2, 3)
