Find all the zeros of the polynomial, and arrange the zeros in increasing order. ...
Plot those numbers on the number line as open or closed points based upon the original inequality symbol.
Choose a test value in each interval to see if the interval satisfies the inequality or not.
Answer: x = 9.6
=========================================================
Explanation:
We have two smaller right triangles that are glued together so to speak.
The base of the smaller triangle on the left is 5 while the height is h.
Let's use the tangent rule to find the value of h
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(55) = h/5
5*tan(55) = h
h = 5*tan(55)
h = 7.14074003371058
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. That value of h above is approximate.
--------------------------
Now focus on the smaller triangle on the right
It has the same height value h. This side is the adjacent side while x is the hypotenuse.
We'll use the cosine ratio
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(42) = h/x
cos(42) = 7.14074003371058/x
x*cos(42) = 7.14074003371058
x = 7.14074003371058/cos(42)
x = 9.6088135029715
x = 9.6
Answer:
no they don't

have a good day :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us model this problem with a polynomial function.
Let x = day number (1,2,3,4, ...)
Let y = number of creatures colled on day x.
Because we have 5 data points, we shall use a 4th order polynomial of the form
y = a₁x⁴ + a₂x³ + a₃x² + a₄x + a₅
Substitute x=1,2, ..., 5 into y(x) to obtain the matrix equation
| 1 1 1 1 1 | | a₁ | | 42 |
| 2⁴ 2³ 2² 2¹ 2⁰ | | a₂ | | 26 |
| 3⁴ 3³ 3² 3¹ 3⁰ | | a₃ | = | 61 |
| 4⁴ 4³ 4² 4¹ 4⁰ | | a₄ | | 65 |
| 5⁴ 5³ 5² 5¹ 5⁰ | | a₅ | | 56 |
When this matrix equation is solved in the calculator, we obtain
a₁ = 4.1667
a₂ = -55.3333
a₃ = 253.3333
a₄ = -451.1667
a₅ = 291.0000
Test the solution.
y(1) = 42
y(2) = 26
y(3) = 61
y(4) = 65
y(5) = 56
The average for 5 days is (42+26+61+65+56)/5 = 50.
If Kathy collected 53 creatures instead of 56 on day 5, the average becomes
(42+26+61+65+53)/5 = 49.4.
Now predict values for days 5,7,8.
y(6) = 152
y(7) = 571
y(8) = 1631
