(2x+6)-3(x-2)

2x+6-3x+6

-x+12

What is the end behavior of the graph of f(x) = x5 – 8x4 + 16x3?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x⁵ – 8x⁴ + 16x³

As x approaches +∞, the highest term, x⁵, approaches +∞.

As x approaches -∞, x⁵ approaches -∞ (a negative number raised to an odd exponent is also negative).

Now let's factor:

f(x) = x³ (x² – 8x + 16)

f(x) = x³ (x – 4)²

f(x) has roots at x=0 and x=4.  x=4 is a repeated root (because it's squared), so the graph touches the x-axis but does not cross at x=4.

The graph crosses the x-axis at x=0.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A shopper paid $2.52 for 4.5 pounds of potatoes. This means that the unit price for each potato would be

2.52/4.5 = 0.55556

Approximately $0.6 per pound.

The shopper paid $7.75 for 2.5 pounds of broccoli. This means that the unit price for each broccoli would be

7.75/2.5 = $3.1 per pound.

The shopper paid $2.45 for 2.5 pounds of pears. This means that the unit price for each pear would be

2.45/2.5 = $0.98 per pound

Write an equation for the line parallel to the line 24x+8y=7 through the point (-5, -8).
nikdorinn [45]
Paralelll ines have same slope
in form
ax+by=c
slope=-a/b

point slope form
the equtaiotn of a line that passes through the point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
so
find slope

24x+8y=7
slope=-24/8=-3

a point is (-5,-8)

m=-3


y-(-8)=-3(x-(-5))
y+8=-3(x+5)
y+8=-3x-15
y=-3x-23
