The number of real zeros of the function f(x) = x3 + 4x2 + x − 6 is 3

<h3>How to determine the number of real zeros?</h3>

The equation of the function is given as:

f(x) = x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6

Expand the function

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 - x^2 + 6x - 5x - 6

Reorder the terms

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 + 6x - x^2 - 5x - 6

Factor the expression

f(x) = x(x^2 + 5x + 6) -1(x^2 + 5x + 6)

Factor out x -1

f(x) = (x^2 + 5x + 6)(x -1)

Expand

f(x) = (x^2 + 3x + 2x + 6)(x -1)

Factorize

f(x) = [x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)](x - 1)

Factor out x + 2

f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 2)(x- 1)

The function has been completely factored and it has 3 linear factors

Hence, the number of real zeros of the function f(x) = x3 + 4x2 + x − 6 is 3

A 30 foot ladder is set against the side of a house so that it reaches up 24 feet. If Alexander grabs the ladder at its base and
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The answer would be 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

By finding the missing base side on the original triangle (which is 18), we add 10 to that number to find the base side on the second triangle. We can then use the equation "sin(21.04) = x/30" to find the missing length side (21.04 is the degree measurement).

Hope this helps :)
