I cant see it well try to get a better pic and i can help you
You will need three roots for this, so we have
Let x = -30, -10 and +20
So the factors will be (x+30)(x+10)(x-20)
The divide it to 100, this will help bring the peak up and down
So the polynomial function R(x) will become
1/100 * (x+30)(x+10)(x-20)
R(x) = 1/100 * (x+30)(x+10)(x-20)
Finding the X-intercept:
Let R(x) = 0 and solve for x.
1/100 * (x+30)(x+10)(x-20) = 0
x = -30, -10, 20 are the x-intercepts.
16 pieces may be cut. This is because we need to divide 36 by 2 and 1/4 to find how many pieces hat can be cut. First, we need to change everything into a fraction (or improper fraction). 2 and 1/4 = 9/4 (if you need help trying to find out how to get this, just ask). Then, since we are doing division, we flip the 9/4 around to get 4/9. 36 times (it's not dividing anymore since we flipped the 9/4) 4/9 = 16 pieces. I hope this helps! :D
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide a negative with a negative, you get a positive.
