Chapter 3, Problem 77RE

Evaluate the function to answer the question. Use the equation Max = (x + y + lx-yl) to answer the following questions. Recall that lal means the absolute value of a number. (a) Evaluate the equation for x = 10 and y = 7. (b) Evaluate the equation for x = 11 and y = 6. (c) Evaluate the equation for x = -5 and y = -8. (d) Evaluate the equation for x=-9 and y = 4.

The zeros of the function ? = −3(? + 4)(? − 5)(? + 7) are ______, ______, and ______.

Answer parts (a) (e) for the function shown below. 1(x) =x + 3x -x-3 b. Find the x-intercepts. State whether the graph crosses the x-axis, or touches the x-axis and turns around, at each intercept. What are the x-intercepts? X- (Type an integer or a decimal. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.) At which x-intercept(s) does the graph cross the x-axis? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. O A. x= (Type an integer or a decimal. Use a comma to separate answers as needed) O B. There are no x-intercepts at which the graph crosses the x-axis. Al which x-intercept(s) does the graph touch the x-axis and turn around? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. OA. x= (Type an integer or a decimal. Use a comma to separate answers as needed) O B. There are no x-intercepts at which the graph touches the x-axis and turns around. c. Find the y-intercept. The y-intercept is y =…
