A scuba diver wants to dive more than 2/12 times her previous deepest dive. That means she has to dive at least 70 feet below the surface of the ocean. This dive is represented by the inequality 2/12p<−70, where p is the distance below the surface of her previous deepest dive. Select from the drop-down to correctly interpret the solution of this inequality.

The scuba diver's previous deepest dive was

Choose...

feet below the surface of the ocean.

what statement? is there an image?

sorry i got nothing

step-by-step explanation:

p

step-by-step explanation:

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.
