Answer:
The largest possible number of x intercept is 9 while the largest possible number of relative max/min is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
For any polynomial of degree n with distinct and real solutions, it can have at most n different x intercepts. This would imply it can have at most 9 distinct real solutions.
It can also have at most n-1 relative max/min in alternating order. This is best illustrated when such polynomial is sketched on a graph.
For example a quadratic expression is a polynomial of degree 2 and has at most 2 distinct solutions and 1 relative max/min.
In this question, for the polynomial, its degree (n) = 9
So it can have at most 9 x intercepts and at most 8 relative max/min.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
If GH is tangent to circle F, then it forms a right angle with FG. Therefore, triangle FGH would be a right triangle and would satisfy Pythagorean theorem.
34² + 256² = 288²
66692 = 82944
The sides are not a Pythagorean triple, so GH is not tangent to the circle.
Answer: x^2 -10x + 24
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-6) (x-4)
= x^2 - 6x - 4x + 24
= x^2 -10x + 24
It's B because the car gets older as the years of ownership go up; resulting in a negative correlation on a graph. Hope I helped :)
