Write a polynomial equation for a graph that passes through the point (-1, 60) and has three x-intercepts: (-4,0),
(1, 0), and (3, 0)

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

A graph of a polynomial passes through the point (-1, 60) and has three x-intercepts: (-4,0), (1, 0), and (3, 0).

To find:

The equation of the polynomial.

Solution:

A polynomial is defined as:

[tex]P(x)=a(x-c_1)(x-c_2)...(x-c_n)[/tex]

Where, a is a constant and [tex]c_1,c_2,...,c_n[/tex] are the zeros of the polynomial.

The given polynomial has three x-intercepts (-4,0), (1, 0), and (3, 0). It means [tex]-4,1,3[/tex] are the zeroes of the given polynomial and [tex](x+4),(x-1),(x-3)[/tex] are the factors of the given polynomial.

So, the equation of the polynomial is:

[tex]P(x)=a(x+4)(x-1)(x-3)[/tex]           ...(i)

It passes through the point [tex](-1,60)[/tex].

[tex]60=a(-1+4)(-1-1)(-1-3)[/tex]

[tex]60=a(3)(-2)(-4)[/tex]

[tex]60=24a[/tex]

Divide both sides by 24.

[tex]\dfrac{60}{24}=a[/tex]

[tex]2.5=a[/tex]

Putting [tex]a=2.5[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]P(x)=2.5(x+4)(x-1)(x-3)[/tex]  

Therefore, the equation of the given polynomial is [tex]P(x)=2.5(x+4)(x-1)(x-3)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

In a pyramid, there is only one base that touches the ground.

However, in a prism, there are two bases, two of the same ends.

The front of the name of the shape also hints:

If it's an octagonal prism, there are two octagon bases.

If it's a hexagonal pyramid, there is one hexagon base.

Mike has a fish tank in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimesions of 6 feet by 5 feet by 3 feet. He has a canister that he uses to fill up the fish tank that is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 2 feet and a height of 4 feet. How many tiems will he need to fil up the canister to fill up the tank?​

Answers

Answer:

7 times

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question :

1. the volume of the rectangular prism has to b determined

2. the volume of the cannister has to be determined

3. divide the volume of the rectangular prism by  the volume of the cannister

Volume of the rectangular prism = Width X Height X Length = 6 x 5 x 3 = 90ft³

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

where

h = height

π =  3.14

Diameter = 2r

radius = 2/2 = 1 feet

3.14 x 1 x 4 = 12.56 feet

90 / 12.56 = 7.2 times

Approximating to the nearest whole number gives 7 times

If$2500was invested 6 years ago, andtheinterestwascompoundedquar-terly,whatwastheinterestrateifthecurrentvalueis$3425?

Answers

Answer:

The interest rate was 5.24%.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the following formula to calculate the interest rate:

i=n*((A/P)^1/nt-1), where:

i= interest rate

n= number of times interest is compounded= 4

A=value of investment= 3425

P= principal= 2500

t=time= 6

Now, you can replace the values on the formula:

i=4*((3425/2500)^1/4*6-1)

i=4*(1.37^1/24-1)

i=4*0.0131

i=0.0524

According to this, the answer is that the interest rate was 5.24%.

Aziz purchesis 4 2/8 feet of fabric he used 1/5 of fabric to make a tote bag how much fabric will aziz have left over?

Answers

Answer:

3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Fabric left over = total fabric purchased - total fabric used to make a tote bag

total fabric used to make a tote bag = [tex]4\frac{2}{8}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] =

[tex]\frac{34}{8}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{34}{40}[/tex]

fabric left over = 1 - 34/40

40 / 40 - 34/40  = 6 /40

Calcular la magnitud de la velocidad angular y el período de
una rueda que gira con una frecuencia de 1200 rpm.​

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the angular velocity is 125.66 rad / s and the period is 0.05 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the magnitude and the period is given below:

First we determine the angular velocity that transforming the revolutions per minute,  

So,

ω = (1200 rev / min) ×  (2π rad / rev) × (1 min / 60s)

ω = 125.66 rad / s

Now, the period is  

ω = 2π ÷ T

T = 2π ÷ (125.66 rad / s)

T = 0.05 s

Hence,  the angular velocity has a value of 125.66 rad / s and the period is 0.05 seconds.
