Step-by-step explanation:
step 1. the x intercepts (called zeros) are where y = 0 or where the graph is on the x axis
step 2. the zeros are -3, 0, 2, 5.
step 3. therefore there are 5 intervals
step 4. ( ,-3) - f(x) = "-"
step 5. (-3, 0) - f(x) = "+"
step 6. (0, 2) - f(x) = "+"
step 7. (2, 5) - f(x) = "-"
step 8. (5, ) - f(x) = "+".
Answer:
This is the graph. The 5 points you can plot can be:
roots: (-6, 0) and (-2, 0)
vertex: (-4, -4)
two other random points to complete the 5 points:
(-5, -3) and (-3, -3)
Answer:
y = 1.2x + 770
Step-by-step explanation:
y = m*x + b
Equation One
y = mx + b
1370 = m*500 + b
Equation Two
y = mx + b
1730 = m*800 + b
Solution
1730 = 800*m + b
1370 = 500*m + b Subtract. The b's cancel
360 = 300 * m Divide both sides by 300
360/300 = m
1.2 = m
Now use the second equation to solve for b
y = 1730
x = 800
1730 = 1.2*800 + b
1730 = 960 + b Subtract 960 from both sides
b = 770
