Answer: f(x)=125g+50
Explanation: He is charging $125 for each gold piece so you would multiply “g” and 125.
You would add 50 as a one time fee so you add 50.
Answer:
First, for end behavior, the highest power of x is x^3 and it is positive. So towards infinity, the graph will be positive, and towards negative infinity the graph will be negative (because this is a cubic graph)
To find the zeros, you set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x
x^3+2x^2-8x=0
x(x^2+2x-8)=0
x(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=0 x=-4 x=2
So the zeros are at 0, -4, and 2. Therefore, you can plot the points (0,0), (-4,0) and (2,0)
And we can plug values into the original that are between each of the zeros to see which intervals are positive or negative.
Plugging in a -5 gets us -35
-1 gets us 9
1 gets us -5
3 gets us 21
So now you know end behavior, zeroes, and signs of intervals
Hope this helps
(2x² - 4x + 3) + (x² - 4x - 4) =
2x² - 4x + 3 + x² - 4x - 4 =
3x² - 8x -1
