Answer:
3 roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The roots of a function is the x intercepts.
x=-1
x=3
x=4
To fint the length first one must find circumference to do that we use the formula D*Pi (diameter times Pi. Diameter = 8 Pi is the constant of 3.1415
so. 8*3.1415 = appox 25.1327. cow that we have circumference we should multiply by the amount of times the wheel rotates (15)
so. 15*251327 = appox 376.9911in now convert to feet. 12 in = 1 foot so divide by 12
so 376.9911 / 12 = about 31.4
round down to 31 feet
To find the equation take the slope 2/3
y-y(1)=m(x-x(1)
y-4=2/3(x-8) = 2/3x-16/3
Next solve for y
y=2/3x-16/3 +4(turn 4 into a fraction with a common denominator)
y=2/3x-16/3 + 12/3
y=2/3x-4/3
