What is the value of the one real solution for y = x^3 - x^2 + 5

The easier way to solve this problem is to graph the function using graphing calculator. Here we have the following function:

So this is a cubic function that extends to as x tends to and as x tends to . This is so because the leading coefficient (the coefficient that accompanies ) is positive. Then, this graph will pass through a point in the x-axis which is the value of the only real solution. The graph shows that this value is:

16

step-by-step explanation:

2 x 40 = 80

80/5

= 16

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
