Note that it said find "a" formula for P(x). We can infer from this as there are multiple possibilities.
In fact, there are many possible P(x) that fits the bill.
You got the most important part correct, namely
(x+5)(x-5)^2.
In general, P(x)=A(x+5)(x-5)^2 will work, but we need to satisfy also y-intercept of P(0)=-75.
If we expand the expression, we get
P(x)=A*x^3A-5A*x^2-25A*x+125A
=>
P(0)=125A.
So setting A=-3/5 => P(0)=-75 as required.
or
P(x)=-3/5(x+5)(x-5)^2
will satisfy all requirements.
It would be nice exercise for you to confirm that it is indeed the polynomial required.
Answer:
c) 5√2 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A square with side length l has a perimeter given by the following equation:
P = 4l.
In this question:
P = 20
So the side length is:
4l = 20
l = 20/4
l = 5
Diagonal
The diagonal forms a right triangle with two sides, in which the diagonal is the hypothenuse. Applying the pytagoras theorem.
Lenght is a positive meausre, so
So the correct answer is:
c) 5√2 cm
