The function is

1. let's factorize the expression

:

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

, is the same as the end behavior of

, 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

)
so, like the graph of

, the graph of

:
"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. "
so if 5.5 is in meter let change it to cm because the question want us to give the answer in cm.


now we multiply 5.5 times 100 which is equal to 550.
next we subtract 550 - 220= 330.
finally, the difference between a teacher and student is 330cm .meaning the teacher's desk is 330 cm longer or taller than the student.
A) Volume = l * w* h --> V = 7 * 5 * 4 --> V = 140 units³
B) 140 units³: Prism B has the same length, width, and height as A, just rotated.
C) As long as the tree numbers' product is 140 units³, it works.
Prism C: 140 * 1 * 1
Prism D: 14 * 2 * 5
