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: (0,3) and (-9,0)
————————
-2(0) + 6y = 18
6y = 18
y = 3 so…(0,3)
————————
-2x + 6(0) = 18
-2x = 18
x = -9 so.. (-9,0)
Answer:
infinite solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the first equation by 2
2(3x-5y) = 2*15
6x - 10y = 30
This is the same as the second equation
They are the same line
This means there are infinite solutions
Answer:
9in
Step-by-step explanation:
54 = 1/2(12*x)
54 = 6*x
x = 9
Check
12 x 9 = 108
108/2 = 54
