9514 1404 393

Answer:

  turning points

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of turning points is the number of real zeros in the derivative polynomial. As you know, the number of real zeros of a polynomial is at most the polynomial degree.

The degree of the derivative is always 1 less than the degree of the polynomial. So, a polynomial of degree n will have at most (n-1) <em>turning points</em>.

A suitcase measures 24 inches long and the dialogue is 30 inches long. How much material is needed to cover one side of the suit
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

432 in.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The side of the suitcase is a rectangle. One length is 24 inches. The diagonal of the rectangle is 30 inches long. The diagonal is a hypotenuse of a right triangle. The length is a leg. We need to find the other leg.

We use the Pythagorean theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(24 in.)^2 + b^2 = (30 in.)^2

576 in.^2 + b^2 = 900 in.^2

b^2 = 324 in.^2

b = sqrt(324 in^2)

b = 18 in

area of rectangle = length * width

A = 24 in. * 18 in.

A = 432 in.^2

If a picnic area is located at the midpoint between Sacramento and Oakland, find the distance to the picnic area from the road s
Oxana [17]
First, think this through. If you are 23 miles from Sacramento, and 110 miles from Oakland (I am assuming it is miles since you didn't specify *cough cough*) then the two cities are 133 miles apart (also assuming you are in between them)
23miles + 110miles = 133miles
so, we use the midpoint formula to find our position
\frac{distance}{ 2}
and get 66.5 miles from both Sacramento and Oakland.

Next, we already know the sign is 23 miles away from Sacramento so we can use that distance and our position to figure out how far away the sign is. We use absolute values because distance is always positive.
|our \: position - distance \: of \: sign|

so we get
|66.5miles - 23miles|  = 43.5miles
to double check, use the sign's distance from Oakland.
|66.5miles - 110miles|  = 43.5miles
so, we are 43.5 miles from the sign!

hope this helps

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

780 - 646.23 = 133.77

Tell me if I am wrong.
