The idea is to use the zero product property in reverse to go from the roots to the factorization. Then you expand out the polynomial using the distributive property.

x = 5 or x = 7 or x = -8

x-5 = 0 or x-7 = 0 or x+8 = 0

(x-5)(x-7)(x+8) = 0

(x-5)(x^2+x-56) = 0

x(x^2+x-56) - 5(x^2+x-56) = 0

x^3+x^2-56x  -5x^2-5x+280 = 0

x^3-4x^2-61x+280 = 0

f(x) = x^3 - 4x^2 - 61x + 280

Answer:

The correct answer is option 4). x³- 4x² -61x + 280

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, a polynomial with roots 5,7 and -8

<u>To find the polynomial</u>

The roots are 5,7 and -8

Then the factors are, (x-5), (x-7) and (x+8)

p(x) = (x-5)(x-7)(x+8) = (x-5)(x² + 8x -7x + 56)

= (x-5)(x² + x - 56)

= x³ + x² - 56x -5x² - 5x + 280

= x³- 4x² -61x + 280

Therefore the polynomial is p(x) = x³- 4x² -61x + 280

The correct answer is option 4). x³- 4x² -61x + 280

Find the equation of the line through (6,4) and (-3,-8)
alexdok [17]

Answer:

y = 4/3x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the equation of a line with 2 points, we use the slope formula which is:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

we will use (6,4) as x_1[tex] and [tex]y_1 and we will use (-3,-8) as x_2[tex] and [tex]y_2. we plug this into the slope formula:

\frac{-8-4}{-3-6}

-8 - 4 = -12

-3 - 6 = -9

the slope is \frac{-12}{-9}

but we can simplify this further by dividing the fraction by -3

-12 / -3 = 4

-9 / -3 = 3

the simplified version of the slope is \frac{4}{3}

we can write this in slope-intercept form which is y =mx + b, with b being the y intercept and m being the slope

y = 4/3x + b <--- we need to solve for <em>b</em> in order to find the y intercept, so substitute x & y for a point on the line, we can use any point we are given, but for this example i will use (6,4)

4 = 4/3(6) + b < multiply 4/3 x 6

4 = 8 + b < subtract 8 from both sides

-4 = b

our y intercept would be (0,-4)

the equation looks like the following:

y = 4/3x - 4, which is our answer
