The answer is 9.857. This can be rounded.
Find out how much over the 10 years whatever it says and then use that to explain if it's worth is
For part A: you will get 3 linear factors (as the degree of the polynomial is 3). perform the division using (x-1) as your known factor and you will get (x-1)(2x²+11x+15). you can then factor the (2x²+11x+15) to get 2x^3 + 9x^2 + 4x - 15 = (x-1)(2x+5)(x+3)
for part B: since 2x+5 will provide the greatest value (assuming x>0) of the 3 factors, then 2x+5=13. solve to get x=4. if x is 4, then the dimensions are 3'x13'x7' [just sub 4 into the x's for each factor]
for part C: as to the graphing calculator, I don't have one. However, if you solve each linear factor for when it is 0, those values will be the x-intercepts. So your graph should cross the x-asix at 1, -5/2, and -3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles are:</u>
<u>Substitute values</u>
- (9+3)/3 = 12/x
- 4 = 12/x
- x = 12/4
- x = 3
