polynomial function of degree 4 with -1 as a zero of multiplicity 3 and 0 as a zero of multiplicity 1

1 answer:

6 0

$\bf \begin{cases}
x=-1\implies &x+1=0\\
x=0\implies &x=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{multiplicity of 3}}{(x+1)^3}~~\stackrel{\textit{multiplicity of 1}}{(x)^1}=\stackrel{original~polynomial}{0}
\\\\\\
(x^3+3x^2+3x+1)(x)=\stackrel{y}{0}\implies x^4+3x^3+3x^2+x=y$

What is the maximum vertical distance between the line y = x + 56 and the parabola y = x2 for −7 ≤ x ≤ 8?

atroni [7]

-7 and 8 are the solutions to the given equation system.
Therefore, the maximum distance between the y values of the two equations must lie exactly between their points of intersection. That is on x value:
x = (-7 + 8)/2 = 0.5
The maximum distance is:
y = 0.5 + 56 = 56.5
y = 0.5² = 0.25
56.5 - 0.25 = 56.25 units

You offer senior citizens a 20 percent discount on their meal prices served at your cafeteria. Assuming that an average of 150 s

scoray [572]

Given, there are an average of 150 citizens eat daile in the cafeteria.

The average price of their meals = $5.95.

The discount given for sinior citizens in their meals = 20%

So we have to find 20% of $5.95 first.

20% of $5.95 = $(5.95)(\frac{20}{100} )$
