Answer:

The largest possible number of x intercept is 9 while the largest possible number of relative max/min is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For any polynomial of degree n with distinct and real solutions, it can have at most n different x intercepts. This would imply it can have at most 9 distinct real solutions.

It can also have at most n-1 relative max/min in alternating order. This is best illustrated when such polynomial is sketched on a graph.

For example a quadratic expression is a polynomial of degree 2 and has at most 2 distinct solutions and 1 relative max/min.

In this question, for the polynomial, its degree (n) = 9

So it can have at most 9 x intercepts and at most 8 relative max/min.

How do you know that the sum of 7-1g and 7-2 is rational?
user100 [1]

The sum of 7-1 and 7-2 will be a rational number because sum of rational numbers is a rational numbers.

A rational number is a number which can be written in p/q form where q≠0.

We know that when two rational numbers is added then the sum is also a rational number. And when two rational numbers are subtracted then the difference is also a rational number.

So in the given question, lets study the term differently that is,

i) 7 - 1 is a rational number because their difference is equal to 6 and it can be written in p/q form which is 6/1.

ii) 7 – 2 is also a rational number as their difference will be 5 which is a rational and can be written in p/q form which is 5/1.

So when these two rational numbers are added their sum will also be a rational number which is 11.
