Honors PreCal Help O.o?

Question

mk heres the question

Consider the constant function P(x) = -.5.

a. find p(1269.35).

b. does the function P have any zeros? Exlplain.

ok so with the constant function...its always the same...but the fact it replaced the x in the equation confused me

so would A just be -.5?

or no solution?

and b. id assume that it cant have 0's because its a constant function...yes or no?

i think i got it..just need a little help with A :/

please and thankies

Answer 1

Answer 2

YESS.  I need help with my AP calc also, if you want to help my question is called "I need major help fast in math"

But for your question.  The p(x)=-.5 is the same as y= -.5 which is a horizontal line at the -.5 just under the x-axis.  Therefore, p(234752753462) = -.5.

p (ANYTHING)= -.5   So yea your right

For b, since the horizontal line never crosses the x-axis, IT HAS NO 0's.

So your right again.  I hope i just helped explain it tho.  I hate this AP Calc homework that is like 7th grade math, stuff that we learned but dont remember... its annoying
