Answer:

q = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x² + px + q , then

f(3) = 3² + 3p + q = 6 , that is

9 + 3p + q = 6 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

3p + q = - 3 → (1)

---------------------------------------

f'(x) = 2x + p , then

f'(3) = 2(3) + p = 0, that is

6 + p = 0 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

p = - 6

Substitute p = - 6 into (1)

3(- 6) + q = - 3

- 18 + q = - 3 ( add 18 to both sides )

q = 15

The polynomial of degree 3, P(x), has a root of multiplicity 2 at x = 3 and a root of multiplicity 1 at x = -2. The y-intercept

Maru [420]

Answer:

$p(x) = - 0.7(x - 3)^{2} (x + 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the polynomial, has a root of multiplicity 2 at x = 3 and a root of multiplicity 1 at x = -2.

This means the factored form of the polynomial will be.

$p(x) = a(x - 3)^{2} (x + 2)$

Also, it was given that, the y-intercept is y=-12.6.

This implies that:

$- 12.6= a(0 - 3)^{2} (0 + 2)$

$- 12.6= a(- 3)^{2} (2)$

$- 12.6= 18a$

Divide both sides by 18;

$a = \frac{ - 12.6}{18}$

$a= - 0.7$

Therefore the polynomial is

$p(x) = - 0.7(x - 3)^{2} (x + 2)$
