2x+5y=21, x+y=3
y=3-x
2x+5y=21
2x+5(3-x) =21
2x+15-5x=21
2x-5x+15=21
-3x+15=21
-3x=21-15
-x=6/3
-x=2
x=-2

Write a polynomial equation that is best represented by the graph.

Agata [3.3K]

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
