Answer:
The largest possible number of x intercept is 9 while the largest possible number of relative max/min is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
For any polynomial of degree n with distinct and real solutions, it can have at most n different x intercepts. This would imply it can have at most 9 distinct real solutions.
It can also have at most n-1 relative max/min in alternating order. This is best illustrated when such polynomial is sketched on a graph.
For example a quadratic expression is a polynomial of degree 2 and has at most 2 distinct solutions and 1 relative max/min.
In this question, for the polynomial, its degree (n) = 9
So it can have at most 9 x intercepts and at most 8 relative max/min.
N; n+1; n+2 - 3 consecutive numbers
n(n + 1) = (n + 2)² - 19 |use a(b + c) = ab + ac and (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
n² + n = n² + 4n + 4 - 19 |subtract n² from both sides
n = 4n - 15 |subtract 4n from both sides
-3n = -15 |divide both sides by (-3)
n = 5
n + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
n + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7
Answer: 5; 6; 7.
First, turn 12 percent into decimal which is .12
Of = multiple
So now you times .12 times 91 which is 10.92
Answer 10.92
Hope this help
(4 1/3 * (-1) * 5) / 12 = -1.80555556
