Answer:
[6.5,-7.25]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the partitioning ratio as 3:1
#Find the length of the x-coordinate and multiply by the ratio:
x length=9--1=10
=>
#We subtract 2.5 from the x-max to get the point=9-2.5=6.5
#Find the length of the y-coordinate and multiply by the ratio:
x length=-9--2=-7
=>
#We subtract -1.75 from the y-max to get the point=-9--1.75=-7.25
Hence, the coordinates that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3 to 1 is [6.5,-7.25]
<u>End behavior: </u>
The parent function is: f(x) = x³, which starts (from the left side) at -∞ and ends (on the right side) at +∞.
<u>Zeroes:</u>
f(x) = x³ + 2x² - 8x
0 = x³ + 2x² - 8x
0 = x(x² + 2x - 8)
0 = x(x + 4)(x - 2)
0 = x 0 = x + 4 0 = x - 2
x = 0 x = -4 x = 2
<u>Intervals:</u>
Put the zeroes in order: -4, 0, 2
since f(x) is increasing from the left then the interval from -4 to 0 is positive and the interval from 0 to 2 is negative.
