First, for end behavior, the highest power of x is x^3 and it is positive. So towards infinity, the graph will be positive, and towards negative infinity the graph will be negative (because this is a cubic graph)
To find the zeros, you set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x
x^3+2x^2-8x=0
x(x^2+2x-8)=0
x(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=0 x=-4 x=2
So the zeros are at 0, -4, and 2. Therefore, you can plot the points (0,0), (-4,0) and (2,0)
And we can plug values into the original that are between each of the zeros to see which intervals are positive or negative.
Plugging in a -5 gets us -35
-1 gets us 9
1 gets us -5
3 gets us 21
So now you know end behavior, zeroes, and signs of intervals
Hope this helps<span />
Answer:
To a power, elevated to something
Answer:
-7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
=-4/5 + 1/3
=(-12+5)/15
=-7/15
I’ll do an example you have the numbers 1,5,7,2,9 you can tell the median is 7 right? So go from the very left and the median (7) and do the same thing you do to find median. (Id recommend crossing the numbers off as you go if that makes sense! :)
