Answer:

P(x) = -0.7(x-5)^{2}(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Root multiplicity of 2 means the root is repeated 2 times. Root multiplicity of 1 means root is repeated only once.

A polynomial of degree 3 means the largest exponent of x is 3.

Here, the polynomial P(x) has root 5 with multiplicity 2 and -5 with multiplicity 1.

So, P(x) = a(x-5)^{2}(x+5)

Where, a is a constant.

Now, it's given that the y intercept is -87.5. Therefore, value of x at y intercept is 0.

We obtain a by plugging in -87.5 for P(x) and 0 for x.

-87.5=a(0-5)^{2}(0+5)

-87.5=a(25\times5)\\ a=-\frac{87.5}{125}=-0.7

Therefore, the polynomial P(x) is given as:

P(x) =-0.7(x-5)^{2}(x+5)

An arithmetic sequence is shown below.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

B. a (n) = -3n + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given arithmetic sequence is: 10, 7, 4, 1, -2, ...

Here a = 10, d = 7 - 10 = - 3

a_n = a + (n - 1)d \\  \\ a_n = 10+ (n - 1)( - 3) \\  \\  a_n = 10 - 3n  + 3 \\  \\  \purple{ \bold{a_n =   - 3n  +1 3 }}\\  \\
