For less than or equal to 250 text messages Dario pays $5.00. After that, for every additional text message he pays $0.15.It means that the number of additional text messages ( n = 1, 2, 3, ... ) and the cost: ( c1 = $5.15,  c2 = $5.30,  c3 = $5.45, ... ) form an arithmetic sequence.An expression for the bill Dario must pay if he sends more than 250 text messages is:C = 5.00 + n · 0.15For example, if he has 260 text messages: 260 - 250 = 10C (260) = 5.00 + 10 · 0.15 = 5.00 + 1.50 = $6.50

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that upto 250 messages Dario sent there is a fixed rate say C=5

i.e. even if Dario sends 1 message Dario has to pay C

After 250 messages for each additional message 0.15 has to be paid

This means for 251 , 5.15

252, 5.30

253, 5.45 and so on.

Hence this forms an arithmetic sequence with starting at 5 and common difference 0.15

Write the cubic polynomial function f(x)in expanded form with zeros −6,−5,and −1, given that f(0)=60
RSB [31]

Answer:

f(x)=2x^{3}+24x^{2}+82x+60

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The roots of the polynomial are the values of x when the value of the polynomial f(x) is equal to zero

The roots of the polynomial function are

x=-6 -----> (x+6)=0

x=-5 -----> (x+5)=0

x=-1 -----> (x+1)=0

The equation of the cubic polynomial is

f(x)=a(x+6)(x+5)(x+1)

where

a is the leading coefficient

Remember that

f(0)=60

That means ------> For x=0 the value of f(x) is equal to 60

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the function and solve for a

60=a(0+6)(0+5)(0+1)

60=a(6)(5)(1)

60=30a

a=2

so

f(x)=2(x+6)(x+5)(x+1)

Applying the distributive property

Convert to expanded form                  

f(x)=2(x+6)(x+5)(x+1)\\\\f(x)=2(x+6)(x^{2}+x+5x+5)\\\\f(x)=2(x+6)(x^{2}+6x+5)\\\\f(x)=2(x^{3}+6x^{2}+5x+6x^{2}+36x+30)\\\\f(x)=2x^{3}+24x^{2}+82x+60
