X = -6/5 I hope this helps
Well you can graph it by plotting 3 points then drawing a line through these 3 points. The graph will be a straight line . By plotting 3 points you can be more sure if you are right, because if you make a mistake then they might not make a straight line.
Put y = 0 in the equation and find the x coordinate:-
x + 5(0) = -20
x = -20
So we have one point to plot:- (-20,0)
Putting x = 0 we get 5y = -20 so y = -4
Second point:- (0, -4)
Putting x = 5 say we get 4 + 5y = -20 so y = -25/5 = -5
so our 3rd point is (5, -5)
Answer:
P(x) = - 5(x + 2)²(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given roots x = - 2 with multiplicity 2 and x = 3 , then the factors are
(x + 2)² and (x - 3)
P(x) is then the product of the factors, that is
P(x) = a(x + 2)²(x - 3) ← a is a multiplier
To find a substitute (2, 80) into P(x)
80 = a(2 + 2)²(2 - 3) = a(16)(- 1) = - 16a ( divide both sides by - 16 )
a = - 5
P(x) = - 5(x + 2)²(x - 3)
