32. a car traveled 150 km in 2.5 hours. what was its average velocity in km per hour?
a. 0.017 km/h
b. 375 km/h
c. 60 km/h
d. 725 km/h

1. when "a" is a root of a polynomial, (x -a) is a factor of it. for the three roots given, the factors of the desired polynomial are (x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3).

in order to make the leading coefficient be negative, we need to multiply this product by a negative number. any negative number will do, but we choose a small (magnitude) value that will eliminate the fraction: -2.

then

f(x) = -2(x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3) = -(x +2)(2x -1)(x -3)

= -(2x² +3x -2)(x -3)

= -(2x³ -3x² -11x +6)

f(x) = -2x³ +3x² +11x -6

2. a graph created by the desmos on-line graphing calculator is shown, and the zeros are highlighted.

3. as indicated in part 1, the multiplier of this equation can be anything and the zeros will remain the same. you want a negative leading coefficient, so the "anything" is restricted to any of the infinite number of numbers that will make that be the case.

school a:

minimum value is 2

maximum value is 22

the lower quartile is 2.5

the median is 10

the upper quartile is 15.5

school b:

minimum value is 9

maximum value is 20

the lower quartile is 12

the median is 16

the upper quartile is 18

box plot for school a isn't symmetrical. the data tails on the right

box plot for school b isn't symmetrical. the data tails on the left
