What is 56?
DAILY DOUBLE (this one is HARD!) Use the 1)Addition Principle, 2)Factor and use the 3)Zero Product Rule to solve x^2-10x+5=29
1) x2 - 10x + 5 = 29 -29 -29 x2 - 10x - 24 = 0 2) (x - 12) (x + 2) = 0 3) x-12 = 0 OR x+2=0 x=12 x=-2
A polynomial of nth degree has at most how many local extrema
What is n-1?
