The change in water level of a lake is modeled by a polynomial function, W(x). Describe how to find the x-intercepts of W(x) and
Agata [3.3K]
<span>First. <u>Finding the x-intercepts of </u>W(x)
</span><span>
Let W(x) be the change in water level. So to find the x-intercepts of this function we can use The Rational Zero Test that states:

To find the zeros of the polynomial:

f(x)=a_{n}x^{n}+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+...+a_{2}x^{2}+a_{1}x+a_{0}

We use the Trial-and-Error Method which states that a factor of the constant term:

a_{0}

can be a zero of a polynomial (the x-intercepts).

So let's use an example: Suppose you have the following polynomial:

W(x)=x^{4}-x^{3}-7x^{2}+x+6

where the constant term is a_{0}=6. The possible zeros are the factors of this term, that is:

1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 6 \ and \ -6.

Thus:

</span>W(1)=0 \\ W(-1)=0 \\ W(2)=-12 \\ W(-2)=0 \\ W(3)=0 \\ W(-3)=48 \\ W(6)=840 \\ W(-6)=1260<span>

From the foregoing, we can affirm that 1, -1, -2 \ and \ 3 are zeros of the polynomial.

</span>Second. <u>Construction a rough graph of</u> W(x)

Given that this is a polynomial, then the function is continuous. To graph it we set the roots on the coordinate system. We take the interval:

[-2,-1]

and compute W(c) where c is a real number between -2 and -1. If W(c)>0, the curve start rising, if not, the curve start falling. For instance:

If \ c=-\frac{3}{2} \\ \\ then \ w(-\frac{3}{2})=-2.81

Therefore the curve start falling and it goes up and down until x=3 and from this point it rises without a bound as shown in the figure below

What is the exact volume of a sphere that has a radius of 9.6 m?<br><br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cpi%20" id="TexF
Evgesh-ka [11]
<span>We have to find the volume of the sphere that has a radius of 9.6 m. The formula for the volume of the sphere is: V = 4/3 r^3 Pi. ( r = 9.6 m, Pi = 3.14 ) V = 4/3 * 9.6^3 * 3.14; V = 4/3 * 884.736 * 3.14; V = 3,705.97349m^3 ( when the number Pi is more accurate ). Answer: The exact volume of the sphere is 3,704.97349 m^3.</span>

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

73/80

Step-by-step explanation:

multiples of 11 between 1 and 80 are 11,22,33,44,55,66,77

number of terms=7

P(multiple of 11)=7/80

P(not a multiple of 11)=1-7/80=73/80
