Basically it's telling you what equation to use for the specific value of g(x). If x is g(2) then you would use the third equation. 2x - 5. so 2(2)-5= -1
x = -1 makes the lengths of segments PQ and PR equal zero.
That is not possible, so the solution x = -1 is discarded.
x = 8
PS = 3x + 3 + 21
PS = 3x + 24
PS = 3(8) + 24
PS = 24 + 24
PS = 48
Answer:
Option B
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the rectangular sand box is given by the function,
F(x) = 3x³ + 6x - 2
Width of the sand box is represented by the function,
W(x) = 2x² - 4
Area function for the sand box will be,
Area of a rectangle = Length × Width
F(x) × W(x) = (3x³ + 6x - 2)(2x² - 4)
= 2x²(3x³ + 6x - 2) - 4(3x³ + 6x - 2)
= 6x⁵+ 12x³ - 4x²- 12x³- 24x + 8
= 6x⁵- 4x²- 24x + 8
Therefore, Area function will be represented by a polynomial degree of 5.
Option B will be the answer.
