The degree of the polynomial is 2.
to find the degree, put the polynomial in descending order with the highest exponents in front. the highest exponent is the degree.
3x^6 - 4 (highest exponent here is 6, degree would be 6)
Answer: the answer is 4, just 4
Answer:
15 2/3, or 47/3
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to assume, correctly or not, that you actually meant f(x) = 2x^2 - (1/3)x + 5. Double check on this right now, please.
If I'm right, then evaluate f(x) at x = 0 and x = 8:
f(0) = 5
and
f(8) = 2(8)^2 - (1/3)(8) + 5 = 128 - 8/3 + 5 = 133 - (2 2/3), or: 130 1/3
Then the average rate of change of f(x) = 2x^2 - (1/3)x + 5 over the interval [0,8] is:
130 1/3 - 5 125 1/3
a. r. c. = ------------------- = ---------------- = 15 2/3, or 47/3
8 - 0 8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic function is given as 
Let's find a, b and c:
Substituting (0, 6):
Now that we know the value of c, let's derive 2 system of equations we would use to solve for a and b simultaneously as follows.
Substituting (2, 16), and c = 6
=> (Equation 1)
Substituting (3, 33), and c = 6
=> (Equation 2)
Subtract equation 1 from equation 2 to solve simultaneously for a and b.
Replace a with 4 in equation 2.
The quadratic function that represents the given 3 points would be as follows:
Both are correct they just chose a different variable to solve for first. they will both get correct answers if they do the rest correctly.
