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)
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

Solve the following system of equations using Desmos.....x-3y=-2 and x+3y=16
Answer:
(7, 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x - 3y = - 2 → (1)
x + 3y = 16 → (2)
Adding (1) and (2) term by term will eliminate the y- term
2x + 0 = 14
2x = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 7
Substitute x = 7 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (2)
7 + 3y = 16 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
3y = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 3
solution is (7, 3 )

The balanced scale represents the equation: 3x + 1 = x + 3
If one x block is subtracted from the right side and three numbered blocks are subtracted from the left side. What process will
balance the scale?
subtract one x block from the left side and subtract three numbered blocks
from the left side
subtract one x block from the left side and subtract three numbered blocks
from the right side
subtract one x block from the right side and subtract'three numbered
blocks from the left side
subtract one x block from the right side and subtract three numbered
blocks from the right side
Answer:
1 block is required in the process to balance the scale
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to get the process that will balance the scale, we need to solve the given expression for x as shown;
3x + 1 = x+ 3
Subtract x from both sides
3x+1-x = x+3 - x
3x - x + 1 = 3
2x + 1 = 3
Subtract 1 from both sides
2x + 1 - 1 = 3 -1
2x = 2
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 2/2
x = 1
Hence 1 block is required in the process to balance the scale

A booster club sells raffle tickets • Before tickets go on sale to the public, 120 tickets are sold to student athletes. • After tickets go on sale to the public, the tickets sell at a constant rate for a total of 8 hours spread over I days. • At the end of this time, all tickets have been sold. If represents the hours since tickets go on sale to the public and represents the number of raffle tickets sold, which graph best represents the scenario?
Answer:
The top graph.
Step by step:
Before the tickets go on sale, 120 tickets were already sold.
After that, the tickets sell at a constant rate for a total of 8 hours.
At the end of this time, all the tickets were sold (we have 0 tickets left)
If x (horizontal axis) represents the hours since tickets go on sale, and y (vertical axis) represents the number of raffle tickets sold.
Then, at x = 0, we should already see y = 120
Because we start with 120 tickets sold.
Then, as x increases, the number of tickets sold also should increase, until we get x = 8 hours, where y stops increasing because all tickets are already sold.
Then we should have an increasing line that stops increasing at x = 8 hours.
Then the correct option is the above graph, where we have:
An increasing line.
y = 120 in the vertical axis (y = 120 when x = 0)
There are three candidates for student council secretary: Greg, Brittany, and Eliza. There are also three candidates for treasurer: Trey, Fabian, and Paulina. An experiment using two dice is conducted to simulate the probability of Greg or Fabian being elected. The first die represents the secretary election. The numbers 1 and 2 represent Greg winning, 3 and 4 represent Brittany winning, and 5 and 6 represent Eliza winning. The second die represents the treasurer election. The numbers 1 and 2 represent Trey winning, 3 and 4 represent Fabian winning, and 5 and 6 represent Paulina winning. The experiment was performed eight times, and the results are recorded in the following table.Based on the simulation, what is the probability that Greg or Fabian will win the election?
Answer:
5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
I have the same problem and this answer was correct.
The table shows the number of games a team won and lost last season with a ratio of win to loss as 3:2. Therefore the tool most appropriate for use is a 5-section spinner with congruent sections, 3 representing a win and 2 representing a loss.
What is ratio?Ratio, in math, is a term that is used to compare two or more numbers. It is used to indicate how big or small a quantity is when compared to another. In a ratio, two quantities are compared using division.
here, we have,
To calculate a win-to-loss ratio, divide the number of wins by the number of losses.
According to the given data:
Greg is creating a simulation, using previous year’s wins and losses, to foretell the team's conclusion.
Wins in the last season = 24
losses in the last season = 16
Ratio of wins and losses = 24:16 = 3:2
Chances of the team winning out of 5 matches is 3 and losing is 2.
The device which is most suitable for application in a simulation that implements the data is a 5-section spinner with congruent sections, 3 representing a win and 2 representing a loss.

Suppose you waited 10 years to invest in the same retirement fund and have the same $400,000 for retirement at the same 8% interest. What amount will you have to deposit each month to match the value of your annuity?
Answer:
$7,196.42
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the compound interest formula to fins the amount after 10years;
A = P(1+r)^n
Principal P = $400,000
Rate r = 8% = 0.08
Time t = 10 years
Substitute
A = 400,000(1+0.08)^10
A = 400,000(1.08)^10
A = 400,000(2.1589)
A = 863,569.99
A ≈ 863,570
Hence the amount after 10 years is $863,570
Monthly deposit = $863,570/120 (10 years is equivalent to 120months)
Monthly deposit = 7,196.42
Therefore he will have to deposit $7,196.42 into his account monthly
find the shaded region of the figure below
Answer:
-x³ + 3x² - 14x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of outer rectangle = (x² + 3x - 4) * (2x - 3)
= (x² + 3x - 4) * 2x + (x² + 3x - 4) * (-3)
=x²*2x + 3x *2x - 4*2x + x² *(-3) + 3x *(-3) - 4*(-3)
=2x³ + 6x² - 8x - 3x² - 9x + 12
= 2x³ + 6x² - 3x² - 8x - 9x + 12 {Combine like terms}
= 2x³ + 3x² - 17x + 12
Area of inner rectangle = (x² - 1)* 3x
= x² *3x - 1*3x
= 3x³ - 3x
Area of shaded region = area of outer rectangle - area of inner rectangle
= 2x³ + 3x² - 17x + 12 - (3x³ - 3x)
= 2x³ + 3x² - 17x + 12 -3x³ + 3x
= 2x³ - 3x³ + 3x² - 17x + 3x + 12
= -x³ + 3x² - 14x + 12
Mrs. Smith washed 2 5 of her laundry. Her son washed 1 3 of it. Who washed most of the laundry? How much of the laundry still needs to be washed?
Answer:
a) The person who washed the most of the laundry is Mrs Smith
b) 4/15 of the laundry is left to wash
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs. Smith washed 2/5 of her laundry. Her son washed 1/3 of it.
a) Who washed most of the laundry?
We convert the fraction of laundry each person washed to decimal
Mrs Smith = 2/5 = 0.4
Her son = 1/3 = 0.333
Therefore, the person who washed the most of the laundry is Mrs Smith
b) How much of the laundry still needs to be washed?
Let us total laundry = 1
=1 - ( 2/5 + 1/3)
Lowest Common Denominator is 15
=1- (3 × 2 + 5 × 1/15)
= 1 - (6 +5/15)
=1 - 11/15
= 4/15
