B.5 cubic feet
C.56 cubic feet
D.96 cubic feet
Answer:
Here's what I get
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
The graph shows a polynomial of odd degree. It is probably a third-degree polynomial — a cubic equation.
Part B
The standard form of a cubic equation is
y = ax³ + bx² + cx + d
The factored form of a cubic equation is
y = a(x - b₁)(x² + b₂x + b₃)
If you can factor the quadratic, the factored form becomes
y = a(x - c₁)(x - c₂)(x - c₃)
Part C
The zeros of the function are at x = -25, x = - 15, and x = 15.
Part D
The linear factors of the function are x + 25, x + 15, and x - 15.
Part E
y = a(x + 25)(x + 15)(x - 15) = a(x + 25)(x² - 225)
y = a(x³ + 25x² - 225x - 5625)
Part F
When x = 0, y = 1.
1 = a[0³ +25(0)² - 225(0) - 5625] = a(0 + 0 - 0 -5625) = -5625a
a = -1/5625
Part G
Answer
Actually, the answer should be -0.0007(x+20)(x+5)(x-15)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is continuing off of the previous answer
PART C
The zeros should be (15,0), (-5,0), and (-20,0)
PART D
x - 15, x + 5, and x + 20
PART E
a(x - 15)(x + 5)(x + 20)
Standard:
PART F
The y-intercept is at (0,1), so we replace the x's with 0:
1 = and this gives us (0+0-0-1500) which also equals -1500
Then we do which gives us -0.0006 repeating which rounds to -0.0007
a= -0.0007
PART G
Just place the numbers where they should go and your answer is
y =-0.0007(x + 20)(x + 5)(x - 15)
the placement for (x + 20) (x + 5) and (x - 15) doesn't matter as long as they are behind -0.0007
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation: The surface area of a cube is calculated by , where x is the side length of the cube. So, 6 * (4)^2 = 96 inches squared, or C
