first off, let's notice the graph touches the x-axis at -1 and 3, namely, those are the zeros/solutions/roots of the polynomial and therefore, the factors come from those points.
now, at -1, the graph doesn't cross the x-axis, instead it <u>simply bounces off</u> of it, that means the zero of x = -1, has an even multiplicity, could be 4 or 2 or 6, but let's go with 2.
at x = 3, the graph does cross the x-axis, meaning it has an odd multiplicity, could be 3 or 1, or 7 or 9, but let's use 1.

Answer:
The horizontal line is the x-axis and the vertical line is the y-axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal line is the x-axis and the vertical line is the y-axis. It's a fact. You can graph the lines by inserting the equations using the graphing calculator, which is the tab next to the one you have right now ;)
There are 95 ounces and 5.9375 pounds.
Fu/ac=mu/bc so 27/36=mu/24 so mu= 18
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 + 2x = 11
(group like terms)
2x = 11 + 3
2x = 14
(divide both sides by 2 to make x stand alone)
2x/2 = 14/2
x = 7
