Answer:

\large\boxed{f(x)=x^3+3x^2-28x-60}

Step-by-step explanation:

If a, b and c are the zeros of a cubic function, then a function equation can have a form:

f(x)=(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)

We have the zeros: -2, 5 and -6. Then:

f(x)=(x-(-2))(x-5)(x-(-6))=(x+2)(x-5)(x+6)

Use FOIL (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd:

=\left[(x)(x)+(x)(-5)+(2)(x)+(2)(-5)\right](x+6)\\\\=(x^2-5x+2x-10)(x+6)\\\\=(x^2-3x-10)(x+6)\\\\=(x^2)(x)+(x^2)(6)+(-3x)(x)+(-3x)(6)+(-10)(x)+(-10)(6)\\\\=x^3+6x^2-3x^2-18x-10x-60\\\\=x^3+(6x^2-3x^2)+(-18x-10x)-60\\\\=x^3+3x^2-28x-60

What is the eighth term of the arithmetic sequence? An=<br> 10n – 14?
Alja [10]

Answer:

A8 = 66 [8th term]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the explicit arithmetic sequence An = -14 + 10n → -4 + 10(n-1)

To find the 8th term. An nth term is where n is n in the sequence. So substitute 8 for n, and simplify.

So A8 = -4 + 10(8-1) → -4 + 10(7) → -4 + 70 → 70 - 4 → 66.

Identify the phrase that cannot be described by the same absolute value as the other three. Explain your reasoning.
r-ruslan [8.4K]
The answer would probably be 18 degrees below normal because the absolute values of the rest are 8 not 18 which is the absolute value of 18 degrees below normal.

Robert is traveling to Mexico for a family vacation. He is bringing 625 U.S. dollars with him. Robert needs to exchange his mone
Evgesh-ka [11]

Robert should get D. 8281.25 pesos in exchange.

Explanation:

  • Robert is bringing 625 U.S. dollars with him to Mexico. He needs to exchange the money he has with him to Mexico's currency i.e. from U.S. dollars to Mexican pesos.
  • The exchange rate is 13.25 Mexican pesos for each U.S. dollar. So                               1 U.S. dollar = 13.25 Mexican pesos.
  • So to calculate how much 625 U.S. dollars is in pesos we multiply 625 with the exchange rate i.e. 13.25 pesos                                                        625 U.S dollars = 625 × 13.25 = 8281.25 Mexican pesos.
