Answer:
I believe RS is 38.
Step-by-step explanation:
RT is 50, which is the total length of the number line. ST is 12, which is one part of the line. To find RS. I believe you have to subtract 50-12 to get the length of the missing part. which is RS.
50-12 = 38
If the youngest is 6 and the oldest is 35 then the range equals 6 to 35.
This is a polynomial with more than 2 as a degree. Using Descartes Rule of Signs:
f(x) = x⁶ + x⁵ + x⁴ + 4x³ − 12x² + 12
Signs: + + + + − + 2 sign changes ----> 2 or 0 positive roots
f(−x) = (−x)⁶ + (−x)⁵ + (−x)⁴ + 4(−x)³ − 12(−x)² + 12 f(−x) = x⁶ − x⁵ + x⁴ − 4x³ − 12x² + 12
Signs: + − + − − + 4 sign changes ----> 4 or 2 or 0 negative roots
Complex roots = 0, 2, 4, or 6
4 is the y axis so from the y axis you go up 1 and over right 6!
Y = x^2 + 10x - 171
y = (x - 9)(x + 19)
x - 9= 0 x + 19 = 0
x = 9 x = -19
Answer B covers all requirements... the factored form is
y= (x + 19)(x - 9)
and the zeros are -19 and 9
