Answer:
3/4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract Jimmys string length from Sam's string length
7 1/2 - 6 3/4
Get a common denominator of 4
7 1/2*2/2 - 6 3/4
7 2/4 - 6 3/4
Borrow 1 ( or 4/4) from the 7
6 4/4 + 2/4 - 6 3/4
6 6/4 - 6 3/4
3/4
Do the vertical line test and draw a straight line.
Solution: C represents a function
If the roots of the equation f(x)=0 are -4,-1, 2 and 5, then binomials (x+4), (x+1), (x-2) and (x-5) are factors of needed polynomial.
Thus, the polynomial will have form
where a is real coefficient (positive or negative). This polynomial has degree 4 as needed.
The form of the graph depends on the sign of coefficient a. Attached diagrams show two different cases of possible forms of graphs (first one for positive coefficient a, second one for negative coefficient a).
The answer would be 6- 52/(x+16)
