Step-by-step explanation:

Point of intersections of the graph with x-axis are not clear.

Let these points are x = -a, -b and c

Therefore, function representing the graph will be,

f(x) = p(x + a)(x + b)(x - c)

Since, this graph crosses y-axis at (0, -6),

f(0) = p(0 + a)(0 + b)(0 - c) = -6

-pabc = -6

p = $\frac{6}{abc}$

Therefore, equation of the given function will be,

f(x) = $\frac{6}{abc}(x+a)(x+b)(x-c)$

What is the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, passing through (0,7) and parallel to y=3x−5?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Well, if a line is parallel to another, they share the same slope. Why that is, I can further explain in the comments if you're interested. Anyway, because we know this line is parallel to 3x-5, it MUST have a slope of 3, since that is the slope of the other line. So you can go ahead and mark out those last 3 answers. You could also mark out the first one since it's the EXACT SAME line as the one were given, so it wouldn't be parallel, it would just be equal to it. So we know the answer has to be B. What if A wasn't the same as the line given though? in that case, we could look at the point you're given. it describes the y intercept of our unknown line, since the point occurs at x=0. If that doesn't make sense, let me know and I can elaborate on why that is. Anyway, if we're looking at the general form of a line, y = mx + b, b describes the y value at which the y-intercept occurs. the y intercept were given occurs at y= 7, so the b value of our line must be 7. This agrees with answer B.

Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any questions! :)

when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number. Find the negative solution.

sveta [45]

When 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number, then the negative solution is -1

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number

To find: negative solution

Let "a" be the unknown number

Let us analyse the given sentence

square of a number = $a^2$

6 is subtracted from the square of a number = $a^2 - 6$

5 times the number = $5 \times a$

<em><u>So we can frame a equation as:</u></em>

6 is subtracted from the square of a number = 5 times the number

$a^2 - 6 = 5 \times a\\\\a^2 -6 -5a = 0\\\\a^2 -5a -6 = 0$

<em><u>Let us solve the above quadratic equation</u></em>

For a quadratic equation $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ where $a \neq 0$

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here in this problem,

$a^2-5 a-6=0 \text { we have } a=1 \text { and } b=-5 \text { and } c=-6$

Substituting the values in above quadratic formula, we get

$\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(1)(-6)}}{2 \times 1}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25+16}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{49}}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm 7}{2}}\end{array}$

We have two solutions for "a"

$\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{5+7}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{5-7}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{12}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{-2}{2}}\end{array}$

We have asked negative solution. So a = -1

Thus the negative solution is -1

pls help, i need to write an essay explaining what the difference is between finding the volume and total surface of a shape

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The surface area applies to how much space a SOLID objects occupies while volume is the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains, so volume can be anything.
