Given:

Degree of polynomial = 3

Zeros are -​3,-​1, and 4.

The leading coefficient is -4.

To find:

The polynomial.

Solution:

The general form of a polynomial is

P(x)=a(x-c_1)^{m_1}(x-c_2)^{m_2}...(x-c_n)^{m_n}

where, a is a constant, c_1,c_2,...,c_n are zeros with multiplicity m_1,m_2,...,m_n respectively.

Zeros of the polynomial are -​3,-​1, and 4. So,

P(x)=a(x-(-3))(x-(-1))(x-4)

P(x)=a(x+3)(x+1)(x-4)

P(x)=a(x^2+3x+x+3)(x-4)

P(x)=a(x^2+4x+3)(x-4)

P(x)=a(x^3+4x^2+3x-4x^2-16x-12)

P(x)=a(x^3-13x-12)

P(x)=ax^3-13ax-12a

Here, leading coefficient is a.

The leading coefficient is -4. So, a=-4.

P(x)=(-4)x^3-13(-4)x-12(-4)

P(x)=-4x^3+52x+48

Therefore, the required polynomial is P(x)=-4x^3+52x+48.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

13÷ 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the odds of player winning is shown below;

For $5 it is 40%

And, for $100 it is 25%

so for total it is

= 40% + 25%

= 65%

And, the total percentage is 100%

So, the odds in favor is

65:100

13:20

Now for winning it would be 13÷ 23
