I found the same problem but with given choices:
A.1 year
<span>B.2 years </span>
<span>C.3 years </span>
<span>D.4 years </span>
<span>E.6 years
</span>
profit = total revenue - total cost
p(x) = x³ - 4x² + 3x - 12
simply plug each choices to solve. answer must be 0.
A) p(1) = 1³ - 4(1²) + 3(1) - 12 = 1 - 4 + 3 - 12 = -12
B) p(2) = 2³ - 4(2²) + 3(2) - 12 = 8 - 16 + 3 - 12 = -17
C) p(3) = 3³ - 4(3²) + 3(3) - 12 = 27 - 36 + 9 - 12 = -12
D) p(4) = 4³ - 4(4²) + 3(4) - 12 = 64 - 64 + 12 - 12 = 0
E) p(6) = 6³ - 4(6²) + 3(6) - 12 = 216 - 144 + 18 - 12 = 78
It would take 4 years for the company to reach break-even point.

Answer:
f(x) is linear
g(x) is exponential
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function will always have the same rate of change between equally distant points, while an exponential function will have an increasingly large rate of change between equally distant points.
First, look at f(x). All these points are equally distant at 2 units apart on the x-axis, so they can be directly compared:

All of these points are the same distance apart on the y, so f(x) must be a linear function.
Now look at g(x). These are also all equally distant at only 1 unit apart.

These are very clearly not the same distance apart on the y, so g(x) must be the exponential function.
Answer:69
Step-by-step explanation:
69•2= 138
69-11=58
58•3=174
174+138=312
