Which equation represents the polynomial function with zeros −1, 1, and 3 (multiplicity of 2), and a y-intercept of −18? (4 poin

ts)
y = 2(x + 3)2(x − 1)(x + 1)

y = −2(x − 3)2(x − 1)(x + 1)

y = 2(x − 3)2(x − 1)(x + 1)

y = −2(x + 3)(x − 1)(x + 1)

Correct Answer:
3rd option is the correct answer

Solution:
The zeros of the polynomial are -1,1 and 3. The multiplicity of 3 is 2. So the polynomial can be expressed as:

y=a (x-3)^{2}(x-1)(x+1)

The y-intercept of the polynomial is -18. This means the polynomial passes through the point (0,-18). Therefore, y must be -18 when x = 0. Using these values of x and y in previous equation we get:

-18=a (0-3)^{2}(0-1)(0+1) \\  \\ 
-18=-9a \\  \\ 
a=2

The final equation of the polynomial becomes:

y=2 (x-3)^{2}(x-1)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics , Population is refer to a large group of individuals or observations that have same characteristics.

A sample is a  subset drawn from it.

We are given that "The 2015 American Time Use survey contains data on how many minutes of sleep per night each of 10,900 survey participants estimated they get.  An SRS (simple random sample) of 100 of the participants has a mean time of x¯=514.4 minutes. "

i.e. The population is 10,900 respondents to the American Time Use Survey.

Pete asks Buzz to make a triangular truss with sides that are 5 feet, 6 feet, and 9 feet. Is this enough information for Buzz to
Georgia [21]

Answer: Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the criteria of congruence for triangles is SSS, this means that when we know that two triangles have all the same side lengths, the triangles are congruent. This would mean that all the triangles with the same side lengths are rotations or translations of the same triangle.

Then, when we know the measures of the 3 sides of a triangle, we have only one possible triangle to make, which would mean that Buzz has enough information to make a truss with the correct size and shape.
