Write an equation of the line that passes through (0,6) and is parallel to y = 5x - 3

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.

it is rigid.; it is isometric. ; the size is preserved.

step-by-step explanation:

a translation is called an isometry; these are transformations that preserve congruence between pre-images and images.

they are also called rigid transformations, as the only thing that can happen to a pre-image is that it is moved or turned, not stretched or shrunk.

since congruence is preserved, the size is preserved.
