you are having a meeting with the ceo of a technology company. you have interpreted the number of laptops produced versus profit as the function p(x) = x4 − 3x3 − 8x2 + 12x + 16. describe to the ceo what the graph looks like and, in general, how to sketch the graph without using technology. use complete sentences, and focus on the end behaviors of the graph and where the company will break even (where p(x) = 0).

168

step-by-step explanation:

first off, we know that he drove 3.5 hours at a rate of 48 mph.

knowing that, we want to see how many miles he drove all-together.

in this case, we can just multiply 48 by 3.5.

48 * 3.5 = 168

step-by-step explanation:

the answer to this question depends on certain assumptions.   if the 6-pint jar starts out empty, and the 3-pint jar full, pouring the 3 pints into the 6-pint jar results in a half-full 6-pint jar.   if we refill the 3-pint jar and then pour its contents into the half-full 6-pint jar, then the 6-pint jar will be full.
