Answer:

f(x) =  2x^2 - 6x - 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2, 0) and (5, 0)  are 2 zeroes of the function so we can write the function as

f(x) =  a(x + 2)(x - 5)   where a is a constant.

Now as (4, -12) is a point on the graph:

-12 = a(4 + 2)(4 - 5)

-12 = a * 6 * -1

-6a = -12

a = 2.

So f(x) = 2(x + 2)(x - 5)

f(x) =  2x^2 - 6x - 20.

Simplify completely. (w^15/w^5)^4 <br> HELP PLEASE
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

w^{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify recall exponent rules:

1. An exponent is only a short cut for multiplication. It simplifies how we write the expression.

2. When we multiply terms with the same bases, we add exponents.

3. When we divide terms with the same bases, we subtract exponents.

4. When we have a base to the exponent of 0, it is 1.

5. A negative exponent creates a fraction.

6. When we raise an exponent to an exponent, we multiply exponents.

7. When we have exponents with parenthesis, we apply it to everything in the parenthesis.

We will use these rules to simplify.

Use rule #3 to simplify inside the parenthesis first.

\frac{w^{15}}{w^5}  = w^{10}

Now simplify the exponent of 4 using rule 6.

(w^{10})^4 = w^{40}
