Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

Complete the statements about the key features of the graph of f(x) = x5 – 9x3. As x goes to negative infinity, f(x) goes to neg
Mars2501 [29]
The function is f(x)= x^{5} -9x ^{3}

1. let's factorize the expression x^{5} -9x ^{3}:

f(x)= x^{5} -9x ^{3}= x^{3} ( x^{2} -9)=x^{3}(x-3)(x+3)

the zeros of f(x) are the values of x which make f(x) = 0.

from the factorized form of the function, we see that the roots are:

-3, multiplicity 1
3, multiplicity 1
0, multiplicity 3

(the multiplicity of the roots is the power of each factor of f(x) )


2.  
The end behavior of f(x), whose term of largest degree is x^{5}, is the same as the end behavior of  x^{3}, which has a well known graph. Check the picture attached. 

(similarly the end behavior of an even degree polynomial, could be compared to the end behavior of x^{2})

so, like the graph of x^{3}, the graph of f(x)= x^{5} -9x ^{3} :

"As x goes to negative infinity, f(x) goes to negative infinity, and as x goes to positive infinity, f(x) goes to positive infinity. "
