Answer:

f(x)=x^3+x^2-4x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, the x-intercepts are;

x=-2

x=-1

x=2

These are root of the polynomial function represented by the given graph.

By the remainder theorem;

f(-2)=0,f(-1)=0,f(2)=0

According to the factor theorem, if (x-a) is a factor of f(x), then f(a)=0

This implies that;

(x+2),(x+1),(x-2) are factors of the required function.

Hence; f(x)=(x+1)(x-2)(x+2)

We expand using difference of two squares to obtain;

f(x)=(x+1)(x^2-4)

We expand using the distributive property to get;

f(x)=x^3-4x+x^2-4

Rewrite in standard form to obtain;

f(x)=x^3+x^2-4x-4

Answer:

Choice A: f(x) = x^3 + x^2 − 4x − 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's a great and simple answer.

Ok first we need to take the x intercepts to solve.

If we look at the graph we see the x ints are -2,+1 and +2.

To solve we need to put them into factor form

= (x-2) (x+2) and (x+1)

Simplify: (x-2) (x+2) = (x^2-4) and (x+1)

Now we take (x^2-4) and (x+1) and multiply them to find our answer

(x^2-4) (x+1)

= x^2(x) and x^2(1) = x^3 and x^2.

now the other: -4(x) and -4(+1) = -4x and -4

We have nothing common here so we just join them

= x^3 + x^2 - 4x - 4, and that is the same as choice A.

How do you determine whether to use 22/7 or 3.14 for π ?
Korolek [52]

Answer:

  Use the value the problem statement tells you. Otherwise, use a better approximation.

Step-by-step explanation:

π ≈ 3.141592653589793238... (a non-repeating infinite decimal)

3.14 = 3.14

22/7 = 3.142857142857_142857

355/113 = 3.14159292035... (a very long repeating decimal)

You can see that the third decimal place is wrong in both of your approximations. The last approximation shown has 7 good decimal digits. A good scientific or graphing calculator will have an internal value for pi that is good to 10 or 12 digits or more (preferably, at least 32 digits).

You should use a value for pi that has at least one more digit of accuracy than the number of significant digits in your answer.

Scientific notation The table shows the amount of money raised by each region the four regions used a total of $ (5.38×10^4) How
Serggg [28]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $8.65×10^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount the West raised is the difference between the total and the sum of the other amounts raised. It is convenient to use a multiplier of 10^4 for each of the numbers, so the number for South can be rewritten as 0.675×10^4.

  West = 5.38×10^4 -1.46×10^4 -2.38×10^4 -0.675×10^4

  = (5.38 -1.46 -2.38 -0.675)×10^4

  = 0.865×10^4 = 8.65×10^3

West raised $8.65×10^3.

_____

Your calculator can figure this for you. You can set the final display to scientific notation format, if you need to.
