The function is

1. let's factorize the expression

:

the zeros of f(x) are the values of x which make f(x) = 0.
from the factorized form of the function, we see that the roots are:
-3, multiplicity 1
3, multiplicity 1
0, multiplicity 3
(the multiplicity of the roots is the power of each factor of f(x) )
2.
The end behavior of f(x), whose term of largest degree is

, is the same as the end behavior of

, which has a well known graph. Check the picture attached.
(similarly the end behavior of an even degree polynomial, could be compared to the end behavior of

)
so, like the graph of

, the graph of

:
"As x goes to negative infinity, f(x) goes to negative infinity, and as x goes to positive infinity, f(x) goes to positive infinity. "
Given:
Amount of money in Tereka’s account : 
Amount of money in Emma’s account : 
To find:
The difference between initial amounts Tereka and Emma deposit.
Solution:
Substitute x=0 in the given functions, to get the initial amount of money they deposit.



So, the initial amount Tereka deposit is $472.



So, the initial amount Emma deposit is $485.
Difference between the initial amounts Tereka and Emma deposit is

Therefore, the difference between initial amounts Tereka and Emma deposit is $13. Emma deposit $13 more than Tereka.
To determine the percent change in price, solve for the differences between the original prices and the sale prices. Then, divide the difference by the original price and multiply by 100%.
Guitar 1: (($160 - $100) / $160) x 100% = 37.5%
Guitar 2: (($250 - $150) / $250) x 100% = 40%
Thus, guitar 2 has a greater percent change in price.
Answer:
1/204.
Step-by-step explanation:
That would be
6/18 * 5/17 * 4/16 * 3/15
= 1/3 * 1/4 * 1/5 * 5/17
= 5/1020
= 1/204.
For this case we have the following arithmetic sequence:

To write in function form, we apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses:

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.
We simplify:
