Answer:

The polynomial function of the lowest degree that has zeroes at -1, 0 and 6 and with a leading coefficient of one is p(x) = x^{3}-5\cdot x^{2}-6\cdot x.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, we remember that the degree of the polynomials determine the number of roots within. Since we know three roots, then the factorized form of the polynomial function with the lowest degree is:

p(x) = (x-r_{1})\cdot (x-r_{2})\cdot (x-r_{3}) = 0 (1)

Where r_{1}, r_{2} and r_{3} are the roots of the polynomial.

If we know that r_{1} = -1, r_{2} = 0 and r_{3} = 6, then the polynomial function in factorized form is:

p(x) = (x+1)\cdot x \cdot (x-6) (2)

And by Algebra we get the standard form of the function:

p(x) = x\cdot (x+1)\cdot (x-6)

p(x) = x\cdot (x^{2}-5\cdot x -6)

p(x) = x^{3}-5\cdot x^{2}-6\cdot x (3)

The polynomial function of the lowest degree that has zeroes at -1, 0 and 6 and with a leading coefficient of one is p(x) = x^{3}-5\cdot x^{2}-6\cdot x.

Where to put this on the number line? ​
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

add 9 to both sides.
then divide by 1.5

so p > 8

number your number line: 2,4,6,8,10

draw a circle at 8 and the line to the right since p>8

The values of x and y are directly and one pair of values are given.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The relation is y = -1.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

x and y are directly proportional:

This means that the equation is given by:

y = ax

In which a is the multiplier that relates these two variables.

x= -4, y =6

We use this to find a. So

y = ax

6 = -4a

a = -frac{6}{4}

a = -1.5

So

The relation is y = -1.5x
