Since f(x) has the factors x, x − 3, and x + 2, then we must have f(x) = a(x)(x − 3)(x + 2) for some as yet unknown multiplier a. however, since it was given that f(2) = 40, we substitute 2 for x and 40 for f(x) and solve.

Will give the box plots below show the math scores of students in two different classes: class a 55 72 75 89 95 class b 55 70 75 94 100 based on the box plots, which statement is correct? a: the median score of class a is greater than the median score of class b. b: the lower quartile of class a is greater than the lower quartile of class b. c: the upper quartile of class a is greater than the upper quartile of class b. d: the maximum score of class a is greater than the maximum score of class b.
