<h3>Answer:  g(x) = (-2/3)*x^2</h3>

============================================

Work Shown:

f(x) = x^2

g(x) = a*f(x) for some constant 'a' since g(x) is a scaled version of f(x).

The value of 'a' vertically stretches f(x) upward if a > 0

If 'a' is negative, then we have a reflection going on as shown in the diagram.

We want (x,y) = (3,-6) to be on the graph of g(x). This means g(3) = -6

If we plugged x = 3 into f(x), we get

f(x) = x^2

f(3) = 3^2

f(3) = 9

So,

g(x) = a*f(x)

g(3) = a*f(3) ... replace x with 3

g(3) = a*9 ... replace f(3) with 9 since f(3) = 9

-6 = a*9 ... replace g(3) with -6 since g(-3) = -6

9a = -6

a = -6/9

a = -2/3

Therefore, this means

g(x) = a*f(x)

g(x) = (-2/3)*f(x)

g(x) = (-2/3)*x^2

How do you write a polynomial function for this graph?
expeople1 [14]

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.


\bf \begin{cases} x=-1\implies &x+1=0\\ x=3\implies &x-3=0 \end{cases}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{even multiplicity}}{(x+1)^2}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{odd multiplicity}}{(x-3)^1}=\stackrel{y}{0} \\\\\\ (x^2+2x+1)(x-3)=y\implies x^3+2x^2+x-3x^2-6x-3=y \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill x^3-x^2-5x-3=y~\hfill

Yo does anyone know how to do this?
Sonbull [250]

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 ;)

Warmup/Reflection- necessary for attendance
Pepsi [2]

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
