Because there are lengths going from 0 to 1, the lines must mean either decimals or fractions (we'll use fractions for this.)
1. There are twelve lines from 0 and 1, which we can use as the denominator for our fraction. This means the length of each line is 1/12.
2. In order to find where K's point is at, we simply need to count until we get to it. After counting, I see that K is on point 8/12, which we can simplify to get a smaller number. If we simplify once, we get 4/6, which we can again simplify to get 2/3. This gives us the answer K is on point 8/12 or 2/3.
The x-axis intercepts are the roots of the polynomial. So, the roots are x = - 2, x = - 1 and x = 3.
Therefore, the polynomial can be factored as:
(x - (-2)) * ( x - (-1) ) * (x - 3) = (x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3).
Answer: (x + 2) (x + 1) (x - 3)
$1.36 will be added.
The discounted price is $17.00
Multiply that by .08
