2. Consider the function, f(x)=x^3+x^2-9x-9

Sedaia [141]

The intercepts of the graph are:

x-axis interception: $\left(-1,\:0\right),\:\left(-3,\:0\right),\:\left(3,\:0\right)$ .

y-axis interception: $\left(0,\:-9\right)$ .

See the graph of the function $f(x)=x^3+x^2-9x-9$ in the attached image.

<h3>Constructing a graph</h3>

For constructing a graph we have the following steps:

Determine the range of values for x of your graph.

For this exercise, for example, we can define a range -4<x<4. In others words, the values of x will be in this interval.

Determine the points

Replace these x-values in the given equation. For example:

When x=-4, we will have: $\left(-4\right)^3+\left(-4\right)^2-9\left(-4\right)-9=-21$ . Do this for the all x-values of your ranges.

See the results for this step in the attached table.

Draw the graph

Mark the points <u>x</u> and<u> y</u> that you found in the last step. After that, connect the dots to draw the graph.

The attached image shows the graph for the given function.

<h3>Find the x- and y-intercepts</h3>

The intercepts are points that crosses the axes of your plot. From your graph is possible to see:

x-axis interception points (y=f(x)=0) are: $\left(-1,\:0\right),\:\left(-3,\:0\right),\:\left(3,\:0\right)$ .

y-axis interception point (x=0) is: $\left(0,\:-9\right)$ .

1/2 x + 2 = 1/6 x - 1 =

aksik [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+2−1/6x=1/6x−1−1/6x

1/3x+2=−1

1/3x+2−2=−1−2

1/3x=−3

3*(1/3x)=(3)*(−3)

thomas has 6.35 in dimes and quarters the number of dimes is three more than three times the number of quarters how many quarts

Feliz [49]

Answer:

11 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

If Thomas ignores the extra 3 dimes, he can arrange his coins in groups of 3 dimes and 1 quarter, each group valued at 55¢. It takes

... 6.05/0.55 = 11

groups to bring the total value to the $6.05 remaining after ignoring the extra dimes.

Thomas has 11 quarters and 36 dimes.

What is 3/5 + 1/2? As in fractions, I can’t figure it out!! :(

ella [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{5} + \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{3 \times 2 + 1 \times 5}{5 \times 2} \\ \\ = \frac{6 + 5}{10} \\ \\ = \frac{11}{10} \\ \\ = 1 \frac{1}{10}$
