Problem 67

In Exercises 65 - 74, find a polynomial of degree \( n \) that has the given zero(s). (There are many correct answers.) Zero(s) Degree \( x = -5, 0, 1 \), \( n = 3 \)

Problem 68

In Exercises 67 - 74, (a) verify the given factors of the function \( f \),(b) find the remaining factor(s) of \( f \) (c) use your results to write the complete factorization of \( f \), (d) list all real zeros of \( f \), and (e) confirm your results by using a graphing utility to graph the function. Function Factors \( f(x) = 3x^3 + 2x^2 - 19x + 6 \) \( (x + 3) \), \( (x - 2) \)

Problem 69

In Exercises 65 - 70, solve the inequality. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) \( \dfrac{1}{2.3x - 5.2} > 3.4 \)

Problem 75

The revenue and cost equations for a product are \( R = x(75 - 0.0005x) \) and \( C = 30x + 250,000, \) where \( R \) and \( C \) e measured in dollars and \( x \) represents the number of units sold.How many units must be sold to obtain a profit of at least \( \$750,000 \)? What is the price per unit?

Problem 76

The revenue and cost equations for a product are \( R = x(50 - 0.0002x) \) and \( C = 12x + 150,000, \) where \( R \) and \( C \) are measured in dollars and \( x \) represents the number of units sold. How many units must be sold to obtain a profit of at least \( \$1,650,000 \)? What is the price per unit?

Problem 77

In Exercises 75 - 80, (a) use the zero or root feature of a graphing utility to approximate the zeros of the function accurate to three decimal places,(b) determine one of the exact zeros, and (c) use synthetic division to verify your result from part (b), and then factor the polynomial completely. \( h(t) = t^3 - 2t^2 - 7t + 2 \)

Problem 77

The cost \( C \) (in millions of dollars) of removing \( p\% \) of the industrial and municipal pollutants discharged into a river is given by \( C = \dfrac{255p}{100 - p}, 0 \le p \le 100 \). (a) Use a graphing utility to graph the cost function. (b) Find the costs of removing \( 10\% \), \( 40\% \), and \( 75\% \) of the pollutants. (c) According to this model, would it be possible to remove \( 100\% \) of the pollutants? Explain.

Problem 78

In Exercises 75 - 88, sketch the graph of the function by (a) applying the Leading Coefficient Test, (b) finding the zeros of the polynomial, (c) plotting sufficient solution points, and(d) drawing a continuous curve through the points. \( g(x) = -x^2 + 10x - 16 \)

Problem 80

In Exercises 75 - 88, sketch the graph of the function by (a) applying the Leading Coefficient Test, (b) finding the zeros of the polynomial, (c) plotting sufficient solution points, and(d) drawing a continuous curve through the points. \( f(x) = 8 - x^3 \)

Problem 81

In Exercises 81 - 84, simplify the rational expression by using long division or synthetic division. \( \frac{4x^3 - 8x^2 + x + 3}{2x - 3} \)
