Part A: If (72)x = 1, what is the value of x? Explain your answer. (5 points) Part B: If (70)x = 1, what are the possible values of x? Explain your answer. (5 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

a. the residual plot for model 1 has a random pattern and is a good fit for the data.

f(x) = x^3 -2x^2 -3x

x( x^2 -2x-3)

x( x^2 +x -3x -3)

x( x(x+1) -3(x+1))

x( x-3)( x+1)

so zeroes are 0, 3,-1
