The change in water level of a lake is modeled by a polynomial function, W(x). Describe how to find the x-intercepts of W(x) and how to construct a rough graph of W(x) so that the Parks Department can predict when there will be no change in the water level. You may create a sample polynomial of degree 3 or higher to use in your explanations.
(Dividing and Solving Polynomials)

Answers

Answer 1

First. Finding the x-intercepts of  

Let  be the change in water level. So to find the x-intercepts of this function we can use The Rational Zero Test that states:

To find the zeros of the polynomial:

We use the Trial-and-Error Method which states that a factor of the constant term:

can be a zero of a polynomial (the x-intercepts).

So let's use an example: Suppose you have the following polynomial:

where the constant term is . The possible zeros are the factors of this term, that is:

.

Thus:

From the foregoing, we can affirm that  are zeros of the polynomial.

Second. Construction a rough graph of  

Given that this is a polynomial, then the function is continuous. To graph it we set the roots on the coordinate system. We take the interval:

and compute  where  is a real number between -2 and -1. If , the curve start rising, if not, the curve start falling. For instance:

Therefore the curve start falling and it goes up and down until  and from this point it rises without a bound as shown in the figure below

Write the equation of each circle. center at (-4, 3), radius 9

Answers

Answer:

(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²

putting respective value

(x--4)²+(y-3)²=9²

(x+4)²+(y-3)²=81

Answer:

(x + 4)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 9^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here our center is at (-4, 3), so h = -4 and k = 3.  Radius, r, is 9.

Insert these values into the standard equation of a circle centered at (h, k) with radius r:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 becomes:

Answer:

<MJL = 62°

Step-by-step explanation:

in ∆JKL total angle aum is 180° and to find <L we have to subtract the given angles in this triangle from 180

that is

<L = 180-80-38 = 62°

then <MJL = 62° (alternative interior angle)

<JLM= 38° (alternative interior angle)

The relationship is linear, but it takes some doing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This is a very interesting problem. I've never seen one quite like it. There is probably a much better way of solving it, but I did not discover it.  

You have to introduce another variable which I labeled as z.

Let time = x

Let distance = y

Let the step away from the starting point = z   which will be the same for x and y. So 18 and 16 the step away from the start is 3.

So as the time increases, the distance decreases.  What we are going to do sort of resembles a parametric relationship.

t starts with 10

x = 10 + 4*(z - 1)   and increases by 4 with each step

d starts with 20 and decreases by 2 with each step

y = 20 - (z - 1)*2

Now solve for z in each of the forgoing equations.

x = 10 + 4z - 4

x = 6 + 4z

x - 6 = 4z

(x - 6)/4 = z

y = 20 - 2z + 2

y = 22 - 2z

y - 22 = - 2z

(y - 22)/-2 = z                    

Since the zs must be kept the same, the left sides are equated

(x - 6)/4 = (y - 22)/-2               Cross multiply

-2(x - 6) = 4(y - 22)                 Remove the brackets.

-2x + 12 = 4y - 88                   add 88 to both sides.

-2x + 100 = 4y                        Switch the sides

4y = - 2x + 100                       Divide by 4

y = -1/2 x  + 25

Now for sure you have to try this.

Let x = 14

y = -1/2 * 14 + 25

y = -7 + 25

y =  18

Try another one

Let x = 22

y = -1/2 * 22 + 25

y = - 11 + 25

y = 14

Those two at least check.

Answers

Answer:

x = 26.5

y = 12.0

z = 13.4

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️To find x, apply the leg rule, which is:

Hypotenuse/leg = leg/part

Hypotenuse = 30

Leg = x

Part = 30 - 6 = 24

Plug in the values into the equation

30/x = x/24

Cross multiply

x² = 30*24

x² = 720

x = √720

x = 26.5 (nearest tenth)

✔️Apply the triangle altitude theorem to find y:

Based on the theorem, h = √(ab)

Where,

a = 6

b = 30 - 6 = 24

h = y

Plug in the values

y = √(6*24)

y = √144

y = 12

✔️Apply the leg rule, Hypotenuse/leg = leg/part to find z:

Hypotenuse = 30

Leg = z

Part = 6

Plug in the values into the equation

30/z = z/6

Cross multiply

z² = 30*6

z² = 180

z = √180

z = 13.4 (nearest tenth)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement which can be used to prove that x must be a rational number is x = (cb - ad) / bd

Prove of rational number

Given nonzero integers:

a, b, c, d

If a/b is added to x

a/b + x

the sum is c/d

a/b + x = c/d

prove x to be a rational number

a/b + x = c/d

subtract a/b from both sides

a/b + x - a/b = c/d - a/b

x = c/d - a/b

x = (cb - ad) / bd

Therefore, the statement which can be used to prove that x must be a rational number is x = (cb - ad) / bd
