Please explain, thank you

C. 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph descends from the left  so the coefficient of the leading term is negative. It is also a cubic equation with zeros of -20, about 6.5 and about 13. so we can write the equation as below.  The last 2 values can only be guessed because the x axis only shows values which are multiples of 5.

f(x) = a(x + 20)(x - 6.5)(x - 13)   where a is  a negative constant.

(This is only an approximation).

By the Remainder theorem, when the expression is divided by (x + 10):

f(-10) = -20 so we have

-20 = a (-10 + 20)(-10-6.5)(-10 - 13)

(10)(-16.5)(-23)a = -20

a = -20 / (10)(-16.5)(-23)

a = -0.0053

When  the equation is divided by (x - 10) then f(10)  is the remainder so substituting we have as the remainder:

-0.0053(10+20)(10-6.5)(10 -13)

-0.0053 * 30 * 3.5 * -3

= 1.7 approximately.

Looks like the answer is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11-1 > 1-1+a

-12 > a
