The change in the water vapors is modeled by the polynomial function c(x). In order to find the x-intercepts of a polynomial we set it equal to zero and solve for the values of x. The resulting values of x are the x-intercepts of the polynomial.
Once we have the x-intercepts we know the points where the graph crosses the x-axes. From the degree of the polynomial we can visualize the end behavior of the graph and using the values of maxima and minima a rough sketch can be plotted.
Let the polynomial function be c(x) = x
² -7x + 10
To find the x-intercepts we set the polynomial equal to zero and solve for x as shown below:
x
² -7x + 10 = 0
Factorizing the middle term, we get:
x
² - 2x - 5x + 10 = 0
x(x - 2) - 5(x - 2) =0
(x - 2)(x - 5)=0
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x=2
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x=5
Thus the x-intercept of our polynomial are 2 and 5. Since the polynomial is of degree 2 and has positive leading coefficient, its shape will be a parabola opening in upward direction. The graph will have a minimum point but no maximum if the domain is not specified. The minimum points occurs at the midpoint of the two x-intercepts. So the minimum point will occur at x=3.5. Using x=3.5 the value of the minimum point can be found. Using all this data a rough sketch of the polynomial can be constructed. The figure attached below shows the graph of our polynomial.

20 divided by 18 is 1.1
So the answer is closest to 1
Question 2
9 divided by 20 is 0.45
So the answer is closest to 1/2
Question 3
7 divided by 5 is 1.4
So the answer is closest to 1 1/2
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation y = 2,5x
y is the height of the water
x is the time.
To get the range of values of the height at t = 60s, we will substitute x = 60 into the function
y = 2.5(60)
y = 150 in
Hence the range of the situation is [0, 150].
The domain will be all positive integers i.e xEZ
45 - 2t < 32 ( where t is time and you can replace it with x or h if you prefer)
Solving for t you get:
45 - 2t - 32 < 0
45 - 32 < 2t
13 < 2t
13/2 < t
Or the temperature will drop below 32F after 6 and a half hours
