If we observe the graph we can see that the curve crosses the x-axis at the following points: 1, 3, and 5
This means x = 1, x = 3 and x = 5 are the roots of the polynomial and x - 1, x - 3 and x - 5 are the factors of the polynomial.
We can express the polynomial as the product of its factors. So the polynomial will be (x-1)(x-3)(x-5)
The correct answer to this question is option A
The answer that you are looking for is A. 40 to 27
Answer:
x=4 x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 6) (x - 8) =8
We need to multiply out the left side
x^2 -8x -6x+48 = 8
x^2 -14x +48 = 8
Subtract 8 from each side
x^2 -14x +48-8 = 8-8
x^2 -14x+40 =0
We need to factor the left side. What two numbers multiply to give 40 and add to give -14
-4*-10 = 40
-4+-10 = -14
(x-4) (x-10) =0
Using the zero product property
x-4=0 x-10 =0
x=4 x=10
