<span>Slope formula will find you the SLOPE of the line, not the distance. Midpoint will find you the halfway point, but not the distance. Distance formula says it all, and Pythagorean theorem can find you the value of C (the hypotenuse, or the diagonal between the rise and run.</span>
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 9 = 12
3x = 12 + 9
3x = 21
x = 21 ÷ 3
x = 7
Answer:
a) -4 mult. 2
b)
c) 2, quadratic
Step-by-Step Explanation:
A polynomial graph has several features we look for to determine the equations.
- The zeros of the function are the x-intercepts. If the x-intercepts touch but do not cross then the intercepts have an even multiplicity like 2, 4, 6, etc. If the x-intercepts cross over then they have an odd multiplicity.
- Degree is the exponent or multiplicity of each zero. Therefore if we know the multiplicity of each zero we can add them together to find or make an educated guess for the degree of the entire polynomial.
- The shape of the graph tells us what type of polynomial. Odd degrees have a backwards S shape. Even degrees have a W shape. The shape can even tell us the if the equation has a positive or negative leading coefficient. Upside down W or an M shape is negative. While a sideways S shape is negative.
In this graph, there is one real zero: -4
We can write them in intercept or factored form as (x+4) since x+4=0 gives x=-4.
Because the graph never crosses the x-axis it has an even multiplicity of at least 2.
The graph is facing up and is a U shape. This can only be a quadratic of degree 2. It is positive.
This means the function has a degree of 2.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
This is a little complicated but base e which means Euler's number is usually used when solving logarithms. base e equals to 2.71828. You can kind of compare this to pi. This is an irrational number and usually is used in natural logs. I hope this helps.
