CHOOSE 3 PROBLEMS:
14. Find ALL roots (complex as well as real) for the polynomial below, and give their multiplicities:
15. From a seat directly behind home plate in Fenway Park, I must look downward 60.7° from the horizontal to see the pitcher's rubber, and 82.36° to see home plate. The distance from the rubber to home plate is 60 ft 6 in. How far above the level of the playing field am I sitting? (HINT: Carefully draw and label a diagram, then look for a system of 2 equations)
16. For the following function, first find the DIFFERENCE between the relative maximum and minimum; then rewrite the function as g(x) so this difference is half as great, while the zeros stay the same.
Difference: _____________________
g(x) = ____________________________
17. The cubic polynomial below is used to model concentration of a drug in the bloodstream of a 175-pound adult male between 0 and 6 hours after ingestion. Find the values for a, b, c, and d in the polynomial, using the function inputs and outputs from the table. Then use the function to determine drug concentration after 5 hours.
Hours (h) Concentration (f(h))
