First, for end behavior, the highest power of x is x^3 and it is positive. So towards infinity, the graph will be positive, and towards negative infinity the graph will be negative (because this is a cubic graph)
To find the zeros, you set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x
x^3+2x^2-8x=0
x(x^2+2x-8)=0
x(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=0 x=-4 x=2
So the zeros are at 0, -4, and 2. Therefore, you can plot the points (0,0), (-4,0) and (2,0)
And we can plug values into the original that are between each of the zeros to see which intervals are positive or negative.
Plugging in a -5 gets us -35
-1 gets us 9
1 gets us -5
3 gets us 21
So now you know end behavior, zeroes, and signs of intervals

Answer: 140cm 2
Step-by-step explanation: 8 x 5 = 40 x 4 = 115 + 25 = 140
By the Pythagorean Theorem:
L^2=20^2+15^2
L^2=400+225
L^2=625
L=25 m
-10, -1.75, -3/4, 1/2, 3, 9
_____________________________
-3/4 converts to -0.75,
and 1/2 converts to 0.5. With -10 being farthest from zero on the number line, it would be the smallest. -1.75 would be the second smallest. Keeping in mind that -3/4 converts to -0.75, it would be the 3rd smallest. 1/2, or 0.5 would be greater, as it is the smallest POSITIVE number. Then you do 3, as it as a whole number, but still not the greatest. 9 would be the greatest.
hope i was helpful;-)
Answer:
Prime. Prime numbers can only be divided by the whole number, or one.
