Answer:
The largest possible number of x intercept is 9 while the largest possible number of relative max/min is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
For any polynomial of degree n with distinct and real solutions, it can have at most n different x intercepts. This would imply it can have at most 9 distinct real solutions.
It can also have at most n-1 relative max/min in alternating order. This is best illustrated when such polynomial is sketched on a graph.
For example a quadratic expression is a polynomial of degree 2 and has at most 2 distinct solutions and 1 relative max/min.
In this question, for the polynomial, its degree (n) = 9
So it can have at most 9 x intercepts and at most 8 relative max/min.
Answer:
It intersects the x-axis at x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>
m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 9)
m = 4/-4
m = -1
y = -x + b
Step 2: Find <em>b</em>
5 = -5 + b
b = 10
Step 3: Rewrite equation
y = -x + 10
Step 4: Find <em>x</em> when <em>y</em> = 0
0 = -x + 10
-10 = -x
x = 10
So the graph crosses the x-axis at 10.
Well u see u need to multiply and that's really all to it so yeah ur welcome
So the first one is -0.5 and second is -0.5 the third one is -0.5 and the fourth is -0.25 so I would say that is D
Euro tunnel : - 115 (115 m below sea level of 0)
-115 = S - 50
-115 + 50 = S
- 65 = S....the sea bed is -65 m (or 65 m below sea level
