You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Try to plot it.
\n" ); document.write( "You know you have zeroes at x = 1-5, x = -5 and x=10
\n" ); document.write( "Pick a number greater than 10 (let's say 20). Plug that in and see that as x gets larger than 10, the solution gets more postive. So the curve rises to the right.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Pick a number between -5 and 10 (pick 0 for instance). Solve that and see that that answer is less than 0. So the curve is below the x axis between -5 and 10.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Pick a number between -15 and -5 (lit's use -10). Solve that and see the curve is above the x axis between -15 and -5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Pick a larger negative number (lets say -20) and see the answer lies below the x axis. Also, as x gets more negative, the reuslting point lies farther below the x axis. So the curve talis off to negative infinity .\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now color in the places where the curve is above the x axis. That is -1510\r
