So we gots apolynomial equation that is 3rd degree and crosses x axis at x=-1, x=0 and x=2
the factors of a poly equation that passes through r1,r2,r3 is
(x-r1)(x-r2)(x-r3)
so
r1=-1
r2=0
r3=2
f(x)=(x-(-1))(x-0)(x-2)
f(x)=(x+1)(x)(x-2)
f(x)=x³-x²-2x
leading coefient is posiitve because 3rd degree equations that are postive go bottom left to top right
yah
actually that looks like the exact graph
both
f(x)=(x+1)(x)(x-2)
and
f(x)=x³-x²-2x
are correct
Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
2. You are trying to find x which is c^2
so plug in the other numbers to the other letters. 9^2 + 17^2 = c^2
9^2= 81. 17^2= 289
81 + 289 = 370
370= c^2
Now all you have to do is square root the number
*square root sign* 370
19.24
c = 19.24
So, x = 19.24
B. Double 5 plus 1 equals 11 and add 1 to 5 doubled equals 12.
Area of triangle = base x height x 1/2
Area of the triangle:
= 12 x 15 x 1/2
= 180 x 1/2
= 90 units^2
