Find an equation for a quartic function containing the following points: (2, 60), (-3, 0), (-1, 0), (4, 0), (1, 0).
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

f(x) = -2(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x - 1)  or

f(x) = -2x^4 + 2x^3 + 26x^2 - 2x  -24.

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of the function are  at (-3, 0), (-1, 0), (4, 0), (1, 0) so in factor form the function is:

a(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x - 1)      where a is some constant.

We find a by substituting the point (2, 60)

60 = a(2+3)(2+1)(2-4)(2-1)

-30a = 60

a = -2.

So the function is -2(x + 3)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x - 1) .

Find the highest common factor using prime factorization for 27y and 54y³<br>​
amid [387]

Given:

27y and 54y³

​To find:

The highest common factor (HCF) using prime factorization.

Solution:

We have,

27y and 54y³

Using the prime factorization, we get

27y=3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot y

54y^3=2\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot y\cdot y\cdot y

Now, the common prime factors are 3, 3, 3 and y. So,

HCF=3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot y

HCF=27y

Therefore, the highest common factor of the given terms is 27y.

Given these facts, determine how many cans of paint you would need to buy to paint 2 walls.
JulsSmile [24]

You will need 3 cans of paint to cover the two walls

<h3>How many cans of paint will you need?</h3>

We know that 1 can will cover 200 square feet of wall.

And here we have 2 walls, let's find the total area of these walls.

wall 1 is 20ft by 8ft, then its area is:

A = 20ft*8ft = 160ft^2

wall 2 is 40t by 8 ft, then its area is:

A'  = 40ft*8ft = 320ft^2

The total area is:

160ft^2 +  320ft^2 = 480ft^2

The number of cans of paint needed is given by the quotient between the total area and the area that each can cover.

N = 480ft^2/200ft^2 = 2.4

But we can't have a 0.4 of a can, so we should round to the next whole number, which is 3.
