The amount of watermelon served is
There is 186/4 total watermelon. Minus the 153/4 that was eaten,
The leftover watermelon is 8 & 1/4 pounds.
The will intersect at a point with a positive x coordinate.
We can tell this because they actually already have a shared space on the graph. If you plot the 3 points of g(x) given, you'll see that f(x) and g(x) both share the coordinate (1, 3). As a result, we know that they do intersect and it is where x (1) is a positive number.
<span>x(1^2)-2(1)+4(1^3)=6
x - 2 + 4 = 6
x + 2 = 6
x = 4 </span>
