PLEASE HELP Write an equation with the smallest possible degree for the function graphed attached.

Mathematics

arlik [135]2 years ago

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

First we can go ahead and create a general equation for this polynomial

Here are our roots :

     x1 = - 3

     x2 = -1

     x3 = 1

Now because this function extends from quadrant 4 to 3, we know that this has been reflected in the x-axis :

     f(x) = - ( x + 3 ) ( x + 1 ) ( x - 1 )

However if we look closely you can see that the graph appears to "bounce" off certain roots. In this case it bounces off x = 1. This means that this root is an order of 2. It also has a weird looking curve on x = - 3 which means that this root is an order of 3.

Our general equation will look like this :

     f(x) = - ( x + 3 )^3 ( x - 1 )^2 ( x + 1 )

Now we need to sub in any point on the graph to solve for the <em>a </em>value. I'm just going to arbitrarily pick the y-intercept at ( 0 , -3 )

     - 3 = - a ( 0 + 3 )^3 ( 0 - 1 )^2 ( 0 + 1 )

     - 3 = - a (3)^3 (-1)^2 (1)

     - 3 = - a (27)(1)(1)

     - 3 = - a27

     1/9 = a

Here is our FINAL equation :

     f(x) = - 1/9 ( x + 3 )^3 ( x - 1 )^2 ( x + 1 )

Hope this helps! Best of luck <3

I would really appreciate a brainliest if possible :)

A person suspects a standard number cube is not so standard. Another person rolls this cube 100 times, and it lands on a six 42
Ksju [112]

Answer:

The chance of an average six-sided number cube landing one one number is 1/6, or approximately 16.67%. When rolling a number cube 100 times, the average number of times it lands on any specific number should be fairly close to 16.67.

A 6 being rolled 42 times and 33 times means that it is <em>very likely</em> not to be a standard number cube. Although we cannot know for certain, the chance of this happening is very low.

Jack can text 180 words in 2 minutes and 45 seconds. What is his unit rate in texts per second?
grigory [225]

Answer: 1.091 which is approximately 1 word per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack can text 180 words in 2 minutes and 45 seconds. We would convert 2 minutes to seconds

60 seconds = 1 minute

x seconds = 2 minutes

x = 2×60 = 120 seconds

2 minutes 45seconds = 120+45 = 165 seconds

This means Jack can text 180 words in 165 seconds

Let's find his unit rate in texts per second

if jack texts 180 words in 165 seconds

Then jack texts y words in 1 second

165y = 180

y = 180/165= 1.091 words per second

This is approximately 1 word per second
