Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the actual distance in miles between Lynwood and Forest Hill, we can use a rule of three:

If 0.25 inch on the map is equivalent to 1 mile, then 3.75 inch on the map is equivalent to what distance:

0.25 inch -> 1 mile

3.75 inch -> X miles

0.25/3.75 = 1/X

X = 3.75/0.25 = 15 miles

The actual distance between Lynwood and Forest Hill is 15 miles.

Could the equation. For the graph of the function have degree 4?explain
aivan3 [116]

The graphed polynomial seems to have a degree of 2, so the degree can be 4 and not 5.

<h3>Could the graphed function have a degree 4?</h3>

For a polynomial of degree N, we have (N - 1) changes of curvature.

This means that a quadratic function (degree 2) has only one change (like in the graph).

Then for a cubic function (degree 3) there are two, and so on.

So. a polynomial of degree 4 should have 3 changes. Naturally, if the coefficients of the powers 4 and 3 are really small, the function will behave like a quadratic for smaller values of x, but for larger values of x the terms of higher power will affect more, while here we only see that as x grows, the arms of the graph only go upwards (we don't know what happens after).

Then we can write:

y = a*x^4 + c*x^2 + d

That is a polynomial of degree 4, but if we choose x^2 = u

y = a*u^2 + c*u + d

So it is equivalent to a quadratic polynomial.

Then the graph can represent a function of degree 4 (but not 5, as we can't perform the same trick with an odd power).
