Hey!! Can someone tell me if I'm correct so far in my response?

Question

anonymous · Answer

You are having a meeting with the CEO of a technology company. You have interpreted the number of laptops produced versus profit as the function P(x) = x4 -3x3 -8x2 + 12x + 16.

anonymous · Answer

Describe to the CEO what the graph looks like. Use complete sentences, and focus on the end behaviors of the graph and where the company will break even (where P(x) = 0).

anonymous · Answer

My response so far is: Since this is an positive even function, as seen due to the highest exponent (4), the end behaviors will both be facing up. Or the ends of this graph will be pointing up.

Looks good, except it's not even function

geerky42 · Answer

Just remove "even" and you are good.

anonymous · Answer

Would that be the end of the answer or would I have to respond more? @geerky42

anonymous · Answer

Where would the company break even is my question really... @geerky42

anonymous · Answer

Thank you very much btw!! @geerky42

geerky42 · Answer

Oh yeah, you would also need to describe where the company will break even (where P(x) = 0)

geerky42 · Answer

Just solve P(x) = 0, then describe what x, aka the number of laptops produced, will cause company to break even, I think.

Okay let me do this quickly one second please ;v; @geerky42

anonymous · Answer

$$p(0)= x^4-3x^3-8x^2+12x+6$$$$p(0)= 0-0-0+0+6$$$$p(0) = 6$$ @geerky42 is this correct?
