A polynomial function has a root of -4 with multiplicity of 4, a root of -1 with multiplicity of 3, and a root of 5 with multipl

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

To draw this graph, we start from the left in quadrant 3 drawing the curve to -4 on the x-axis to touch it but not cross. We continue back down and curve back around to cross the x-axis at -1. We continue up past -1 and curve back down to 5 on the x-axis. We touch here without crossing and draw the rest of our function heading back up. It should form a sideways s shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomials is an equation with many terms whose leading term is the highest exponent known as degree. The degree or exponent tells how many roots exist. These roots are the x-intercepts.

This polynomial has roots -4, -1, and 5. This means the graph must touch or cross through the x-axis at these x-values. What determines if it crosses the x-axis or the simple touch it and bounce back? The even or odd multiplicity - how many times the root occurs.

In this polynomial:

Root -4 has even multiplicity of 4 so it only touches and does not cross through.

Root -1 has odd multiplicity of 3 so crosses through.

Root 5 has even multiplicity of 6 so it only touches and does not cross through.

Lastly, what determines the facing of the graph (up or down) is the leading coefficient. If positive, the graph ends point up. If negative, the graph ends point down. All even degree graphs will have this shape.

To draw this graph, we start from the left in quadrant 3 drawing the curve to -4 on the x-axis to touch it but not cross. We continue back down and curve back around to cross the x-axis at -1. We continue up past -1 and curve back down to 5 on the x-axis. We touch here without crossing and draw the rest of our function heading back up. It should form a sideways s shape.

out of 200 houses in a neighborhood, 30 of them have their own lawn service. what percent of the houses do not have their own la

stira [4]

Answer:

85%

Step-by-step explanation:

If 30 of them have their own lawn service then that means 170 of them do not have their own lawn service.

Seeing as there are 200 houses in total, the fraction of people who don't have lawn service is 170/200. This is equal to 0.85 or 85%.

Charlie runs a book rental business. He currently charges $3 per book and rents out an average of 38 books a day.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

b(x) = (3+0.5x) (38-4x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the generated revenue per day be b(x)

Let x be the number for every 50cents($0.5) price increase

Formula to be used to generate the revenue generated is expressed using the formula:

b(x) = Price × Quantity

Next is to derive the price and quantity function in terms of x.

For the price:

If he currently charges $3 per book

Let derive the price function for the model and x number of price increase for every 50 cents, then

Price = ($0.5 of x)+$3

Price = $3+$0.5x

Price = $(3+0.5x)

For the quantity:

Number of books rent out per day = 38

If for every 50cents increase in rental price x, the average business can expect to lose 4 rentals a day, then the total lost per quantity = 4x

Quantity per time = Number of books rent out daily - loss on each book

Quantity = $(38-4x)

Next is to substitute the price and quantity function into the revenue formula above:

Revenue = Price × Quantity

Revenue = (3+0.5x)(38-4x)

Hence the equation that models this scenario, where b(x) is the revenue generated and x is the number of 50 price increases is b(x) = (3+0.5x)(38-4x)
