1:3 ratio between p and r

Okay, so we have 2p = q+r, and 2p = 3q, so 3q = q=r, then 2q = r, and 3q = 1.5r, and so 2p = 1.5 r, and p = 0.75r or p = 3r/4

At 2pm the level of the water in the pool was 10 feet. At 6pm the level of water was 2 feet. Find the constant rate of the water
adelina 88 [10]
Assuming that the pool was drained at a constant rate, the speed at which it was drained can be expressed as a function of time. In this case, the pool level will be expressed in feet per hour.

The time changed by 4 hours (6-2), and the level of the pool changed by -8 feet (2-10). Diving the feet by the hours to get the rate of decreasing depth, we find that the rate equals -2 feet/hour.

Write an equation for the cubic polynomial function whose graph has zeroes at 2, 3, and 5.
TiliK225 [7]

we know that

For a polynomial, if x=a is a zero of the function, then (x−a) is a factor of the function. The term multiplicity, refers to the number of times that its associated factor appears in the polynomial.

So

In this problem

If the cubic polynomial function has zeroes at 2, 3, and 5

then

the factors are

(x-2)\\ (x-3)\\ (x-5)

Part a) Can any of the roots have multiplicity?

The answer is No

If a cubic polynomial function has three different zeroes

then

the multiplicity of each factor is one

For instance, the cubic polynomial function has the zeroes

x=2\\ x=3\\ x=5

each occurring once.

Part b) How can you find a function that has these roots?

To find the cubic polynomial function multiply the factors and equate to zero

so

(x-2)*(x-3)*(x-5)=0\\ (x^{2} -3x-2x+6)*(x-5)=0\\ (x^{2} -5x+6)*(x-5)=0\\ x^{3} -5x^{2} -5x^{2} +25x+6x-30=0\\ x^{3}-10x^{2} +31x-30=0

therefore

the answer Part b) is

the cubic polynomial function is equal to

x^{3}-10x^{2} +31x-30=0
