Using the Factor Theorem, the polynomial is given by: f(x) = (x + 4)^4(x + 1)^3(x - 6)^6

  • The graph is sketched at the end of the answer.

The <em>Factor Theorem</em> states that a polynomial function with roots x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_n is given by:

f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2) \cdots (x - x_n)

In which a is the leading coefficient.

In this problem, the roots are:

  • Root of -4 with multiplicity 4, hence x_1 = x_2 = x_3 + x_4 = -4.
  • Root of -1 with multiplicity 3, hence x_5 = x_6 = x_7 = 3.
  • Root of 5 with multiplicity 6, hence x_8 = x_9 = x_10 = x_11 = x_12 = x_13 = 6

Then:

f(x) = a(x - (-4))^4(x - (-1))^3(x-6)^6

f(x) = a(x + 4)^4(x + 1)^3(x - 6)^6

  • Positive leading coefficient, hence a = 1.
  • 13th degree, so it is odd.

Then:

f(x) = (x + 4)^4(x + 1)^3(x - 6)^6

At the end of the answer, an sketch of the graph is given.

Perform the indicated operation. 10 3/7 + 19 5/9
DanielleElmas [232]
Given expression is

10 \frac{3}{7} + 19 \frac{5}{9}

Now convert mixed fraction as improper fraction as

10 \frac{3}{7} + 19 \frac{5}{9} =  \frac{10*7 + 3}{7} +  \frac{19*9+5}{9}
                                                         =  \frac{73}{7}  +  \frac{176}{9}
                                                          =  \frac{73*9 + 176 * 7}{63}
                                                         =  \frac{657 + 1232}{63} =  \frac{1889}{63}
Now we can convert \frac{1889}{63 } = 29 \frac{62}{63}

So the answer is 29 \frac{62}63}
