Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a third degree polynomial since we have 3 zeros. We find these zeros by factoring the given polynomial. The zeros of a polynomial are where the graph of the function goes through the x-axis (where y = 0). If x = -4, the factor that gives us this value is (x + 4) = 0 and solving that for x, we get x = -4. If x = -2, the factor that gives us that value is (x + 2) = 0 and solving that for x, we get x = -2. Same for the 5. The way we find the polynomial that gave us these zeros is to go backwards from the factors and FOIL them out. That means that we need to find the product of
(x + 4)(x + 2)(x - 5). Do the first 2 terms, then multiply in the third.
, which simplifies to
![x^2+6x+8](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E2%2B6x%2B8)
No we multiply in the final factor of (x - 5):
which simplifies to
![f(x)=x^3+x^2-22x-40](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3Dx%5E3%2Bx%5E2-22x-40)
If you are aware of the method for factoring higher degree polymomials, which is to use the Rational Root Theorem and synthetic division, you will see that this factors to x = -4, -2, 5. If you know how to use your calculator, you will find the same zeros in your solving polynomials function in your apps.
Answer:
1) 160 (less than or equal to) 42+65+x OR 53
2) 2000 (greater than or equal to) 637+x OR $1363
3) 1st piece: 5ft
2nd piece: 10ft
3rd piece: 6ft
Step-by-step explanation:
1) You must reach at least 160 blankets. Some have already been added, so just add the total to "x"
2) Your brother already spent $637 of 2000 dollars.
Answer: choice 2) SAS
AB = DE is one pair of congruent sides that forms the first S in SAS. The other S in SAS refers to the pair of congruent sides BC = EF. The A in SAS is the angle pair angle B = angle E. Note how angle B and angle E are between the two pairs of congruent sides. The order of the letters matters because SAS is different from SSA, which is not a valid congruence argument.
