Answer:
(d) f(x) = (x − 3)^2(x − 2)(x − 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this context, a crossing of the axis at x=p means there is a factor of (x-p). A "touch" of the axis at x=q means there is a factor of (x -q)^2.
A crossing at x=1 and x=2, and a touch at x=3 means the factors are ...
f(x) = (x -1)(x -2)(x -3)^2 . . . . . matches the last choice
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
For polygon PQRST to be considered a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE, it means every segments of polygon ABCDE were increased proportionally by a scale factor.
The segments in polygon PQRST were not gotten using the same scale factor, hence, it is not a scaled copy of the original polygon, ABCDE.
Segment CD = 2 units, it corresponds to segment RS = 4 units. Scale factor = RS/CD = 4/2 = 2
Segment BC = 1 unit, it corresponds to segment QR = 1 unit. Scale factor = QR/BC = 1/1 = 1 units.
Varying scale factor shows polygon PQRST is not a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE.
