a.
To sketch the graph of the function by applying the leading coefficient test.
a.
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The given polynomial function is-
Calculation:
Leading coefficient test-
The graph of the polynomial function rises or falls eventually in the following way −
It depends on the value of as moves to the left or to the right without bound,
1. For positive leading coefficient is positive and oddthe graph will rise to the right and will fall to the left and otherwise for the negative leading coefficient, the graph will rise to the left and will fall to the right.
2. For positive leading coefficient and eventhe graph will rise to the left and right and for the negative leading coefficient, the graph will fall to the left and right.
As the degree of polynomial is odd and the leading coefficient is negative, so by the leading coefficient test it can be concluded that the graph of the polynomial function will rise to the left and will fall to the right.
b.
To sketch the graph of the function by finding the zeroes of the polynomial,
b.
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The given polynomial function is-
Calculation:
The real zeroes of the polynomial function can be determined by putting.
So, there is one real zero of the polynomial
c.

They attach one end of a tow strap to the front of the car and the other end to the truck's trailer hitch, and the truck starts to pull. Meanwhile, Roman and Shanice get behind the car and push. The truck generates a horizontal force of 377 lb on the car. Roman and Shanice are pushing at a slight upward angle and generate a force of 119 lb on the car. These forces can be represented by vectors, as shown in the figure below. The angle between these vectors is 20.2°. Find the resultant force (the vector sum), then give its magnitude and its direction angle from the positive x-axis. 119 lb 20.2° 377 lbarrow_forwardAn airplane flies due west at an airspeed of 428 mph.
