<u>Equation of a Polynomial</u>
Given the roots x1, x2, and x3 of a cubic polynomial, the equation can be written as:
Where a is the leading coefficient.
We know the three roots of the polynomial -6, -3, and 1, thus:
Since the y-intercept of the polynomial is y=90 when x=0:
90=a(0+6)(0+3)(0-1)
90=a(6)(3)(-1)=-18a
Thus
a = 90/(-18) = -5
The polynomial is:
We must write it in standard form, so we have to multiply all of the factors as follows:
Answer:
$20-$3.99(milk)=$17.01÷$4.39(cereal)=4 boxes of cereal
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let y = f(x) = 3x - 2x^2
f(-2) = 3(-2) - 2(-2)^2 = p
= -6 - 8
= -14
= p
f(2.5) = 3(2.5) - 2(2.5)^2 = q
= 7.5 - 12.5
= -5
= q
b) graphing
c) From the graph, you should be able to verify the following:
i) f(0.5) = 3(0.5) - 2(0.5)^2 = 1
ii) 0.5 = 3x - 2x^2 or x = 1.3, 0.2
iii) the maximum occurs at
f(0.75) = 1.125
d) the equation for the line of symmetry is x = 0.75
Let
x-----------> the number of kids
y----------> the number of adults
we know that
2.5x+6y=$7150---------> equation 1
x=2y-------------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
2.5*[2y]+6y=7150-----> 5y+6y=7150----> 11y=7150-----> y=650
x=2y----> x=2*650----> 1300
the answer is
the number of kids is 1300
