Answer:

f(x) = x³+2x²-16x-32

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 0 when x = -4, -2, 4

So these are the roots

Factors are (x+4)(x+2)(x-4)

f(x) = [(x+4)(x-4)](x+2)

f(x) = (x²-16)(x+2)

f(x) = x³+2x²-16x-32

Answer:

f(x) = 1x^3 + 2x^2  -16x - 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the first row of the table, I see f(x) = -27 when x = -5.  We know that -27 is the cube of -3.  So, try adding 2 to x = -5, obtaining -3.  The result (-5 + 2)^3 equals -27, as we wanted.

Unfortunately the proposed function f(x) = (x + 2)^3 does not "work" for other x values.

The governing polynomial involves four coefficients:  f(x) = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d.

We can pick any four x values and the corresponding y-values and come up with four versions of the polynomial f(x) = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d:

(1)  Choose x = -4 and f(x) = 0 from the second line in the table.  Then

     0 = a(-4)^3 + b(-4)^2 + c(-4) + d, or -64a + 16b - 4c + d = 0, and

(2) Choose x = 0 and y  = -32.  Then -32 = f(x) = a(0)^3 + b(0)^2 + c(0) + d.  Then we have -32 = 0 + 0 + 0 + d, or d = -32.

(3) Choose x = 4 and y = 0.  Then we have 0 = 64a + 16b + 4c - 32.

(4) Choose x = 5 and y = 63.  Then 63 = 125a + 25b + 5c - 32

Now we have four equations in four unknowns {a, b, c, d}.

Let's simplify these four equations, as follows:

(2) We have already seen that d = -32.  Therefore,

(3) becomes 64a + 16b + 4c = 32

(4) becomes 125a + 25b + 5c = 95.  We need one more equation.

(5) will be based on (2, -48):  -48 = 2^3a + 2^2b + 2c - 32, or

                                                 -16 = 8a + 4b + 2c

Now we have a system of linear equations to solve:

  8a + 4b + 2c = -16

125a +25b+5c = 95

 64a  + 16b + 4c = 32

Here I used the MATRIX functions of my old TI-83Plus calculator to find the values of {a, b, c}.  They are:

a=1, b=2 and c= -16

and so the general 3rd order polynomial becomes

f(x) = 1x^3 + 2x^2  -16x - 32

Classify the real number. (Choose all that apply). –9 A.) Rational B.) Whole C.) Irrational D.) Natural E.) Integer
IRISSAK [1]
Whole numbers are the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on and negative numbers are not considered whole numbers.

natural numbers are called the counting numbers that are the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and so on. they are positive numbers and zero is not considered a natural number as you can see.

integers are all the whole numbers and their opposite (negative) but negative numbers are NOT whole or natural numbers. fractions and decimals are not integers.

rational numbers are numbers that include all the integers, plus all fractions, or terminating decimals and repeating decimals.

irrational numbers are an infinite number of digits to the right of the decimal point, without repeating.


so your answer is integer and rational, hope this helped! :)
