Question

May I have some help with Algebra II!

Answer 1

@tkhunny can you help me?

Answer 2

Post a problem.
Show your work.

Answer 3

As one of the new roller coaster engineers, you have been tasked with developing a roller coaster that will intertwine with existing Oakville Lake Amusement Park structures. For one of the more thrilling sections, the roller coaster will dive down in-between buildings, plummet underground, pop back up, and coast over a hill before shooting back underground. There must be three distinct points where the roller coaster crosses the x–axis. Precise measurements and attention to detail are very important.

Answer 4

1.Using the points above as zeros, construct the polynomial function, f(x), that will be the path of your roller coaster. Show all of your work.:

The root 6 has a factor of (x-6), the root -2 has a factor of (x-(-2)), and the root -7 has a factor of (x-(-7)). Multiplying (x-6) and (x+2), I get x^2-4x-12. Then I multiply this by (x+7), so (x^2-4x-12)(x+7). This results in a function of f(x)=x^3 + x^2-28x-12x-84

Answer 5

I'm stuck on this...

Using both fundamental Theorem and Descartes` rule of signs, prove to the construction foreman that your function matches your graph. Use complete sentences.:

Answer 6

Not sure where to help you. You seem to have the right idea.

Given zeros at -7, -2, and 6, where is the graph when it is right over or under the obstacles? Make sure you have enough clearance.

Answer 7

I got it actually! Thanks anyways!

Answer 8

@Cubi-Cal Im on the same problem how'd you do it?
