Answer:

  C = (7, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells us the relation between the points is ...

  (B-A)/(C-A) = 2/7

  7(B -A) = 2(C -A) . . . . . . multiply by 7(C-A)

  7B -7A +2A = 2C . . . . . add 2A

  C = (7B -5A)/2 . . . . . . . divide by 2

  C = (7(2, -4) -5(0, -8))/2 = (14, 12)/2 . . . . . fill in the values of A and B

  C = (7, 6)

Find a polynomial function of degree 3 such that f(10)=17 and the zeros of f are 0, 5 and 8
fomenos

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f(0) = f(5) = f(8) = 0, we have f(x) = Ax(x - 5)(x - 8), where A is a real constant.

We know that f(10) = 17.

=> A(10)(10 - 5)(10 - 8) = 17

=> A(10)(5)(2) = 17

=> 100A = 17, A = 0.17.

Hence the answer is f(x) = 0.17x(x - 5)(x - 8).
