Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope formula to find the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points on the line. The slope formula is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
so it would be
11-(-1)/12--4)
which would be
12/16
to simplify that it is 3/4
Starting with x=1, subtract 1 from each side,
(x-1)=0
Our polynomial will have multiplicity of 2 for this particular zero,
(x-1)(x-1)
and do similar with the x=-4, add 4 to each side,
(x+4)=0
So our final result is: (x-1)(x-1)(x+4)
Expand out the brackets if you need this in standard form.
if they double in size every 3 months and there are 12 months in a year, just multiply 250x4=1000 then multiply that by 2. 1000x2=2000
