       A zero of a function is a number that, when plugged in for the variable, makes the function equal to zero.
P ( x ) = 0
As P ( - 1 ) = 0:
( x³ - 3 x² + x + 5 ) : ( x + 1 ) = x² - 4 x + 5
 -x³ -  x²
--------------
      - 4 x² + x
        4 x²+ 4 x
       --------------
                 5 x + 5
                -5 x -  5
                ------------
                          0
The remaining trinomial: x² - 4 x + 5 doesn´t have rational roots.
Answer: x = -1

The first time a census was taken in Esinville, the population was 12,621. Each year after that, the population was about 6% hig
Sedbober [7]
Step-by-step
Population was 12.621 when it was measured

Next year it rose by 6%, so add that 6% to 100% and multiply with population measured

12.621 × (100%+6%) = 12.621 × 106% = 13.379,24

Since a man cant be 0,24, we count that as +1

13.379,24 = 13.379 + 1 = 13.380

That was for a year after measurement, now let's calculate for another year
Now, add those 6% to a new population number

13.380 × (100%+6%) = 13.380 × 106% = 14.182,8

since 0,8 isn't a man, instead we add again +1

14.182,8 = 14.182 + 1 = 14.183

now let's do it for another year after last, by adding those 6% to a newest population number

14.183 × (100%+6%) = 14.183 × 106% = 15.033,98

round it again to +1, since 0.98 isn't a man

15.033,98 = 15.033 + 1 = 15.034

that is it, now graph is in the picture.
