Question: 1. Given the polynomial function f(x) = ax ^ 3 - 6x ^ 2 + 22x + b , f(- 2) = - 24 ,

1. Given the polynomial function f(x) = ax ^ 3 - 6x ^ 2 + 22x + b , f(- 2) = - 24 , and the y-intercept is 12, determine the equation of the polynomial. 2. Consider the inequality - (1 + x ^ 2) ^ 5 (14 - x) ^ 2 - 1 > 0. Explain for what value (S) for x will the inequality be true? Justify your reasoning 3. As the water drains from a bathtub, the volume, V, in litres, of water remaining in the bathtub after t minutes can be modelled by the function: V(t) = 1.75 (5 - t) ^ 3 , where {0 t 5} a) Determine the rate of change over the first 3 minutes of the water draining. b) Determine the rate of change at the 4 minute mark. 4. Algebraically, determine whether f(x) = 2x (x - 4) is even, odd, or neither
