Answer:
(c) -3.8, 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The solutions to the equation f(x) = g(x) are the values of x where the function values are equal. These are the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of y=f(x) and y=g(x) intersect each other.
<h3>Points of intersection</h3>
The points where the graphs cross can be estimated to be ...
(-3.8, 6.5) and (3, -6)
The x-coordinates of these points are the solutions to the equation:
x = -3.8, 3
2x^2 - 8 = 0
2x^2 = 8
x^2 = 8/2 = 4
x = sqrt(4) = 2 or -2
X⁴ + x³ - 2x² + x + (2x⁴ - 2x²<span> - 3) =
</span>x⁴ + x³ - 2x² + x + 2x⁴ - 2x² - 3 =
3x⁴ + x³ - 4x² + x - 3 ← <span>the missing polynomial</span>
Because he has 4 pounds of apples left, you are to subtract that from the total pounds picked, which was a total of 55 pounds. So 55 with 4 taken away, or 55 - 4, equals 51. Since he had equally put 51 pounds into six bags, you are to then divide . 51 / 6 = 8.5. He had put 8.5 pounds worth of apples into each bag.
