Answer:
b = √32
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relation between the side lengths is ...
2² + b² = 6²
b² = 36 -4 = 32
b = √32

<em>Additional comment</em>
This radical can be simplified by removing a square from under the radical.
Answer:
First number: -39
Second number: -37
Step-by-step explanation:
An odd number can be written as where n is a whole number.
Let's call our first number 2n+1.
Our second, consecutive number will be 2 more than our first number, since it has to be odd. All numbers go: odd -> even -> odd -> even. If we have an odd number, and add 2, we'll get the next odd number.
First number: 2n+1
Second number: 2n+1+2 = 2n+3
The sum of these two numbers, 2n+1 and 2n+3 will be -76.
(2n+1) + (2n+3) = -76
2n + 2n + 1 + 3 = -76
4n + 4 = -76
4n = -80
n = -20
Since our first number is 2n+1:
2 * (-20) + 1 = -40 + 1 = -39
First number: -39
Our second number is 2n+3, or 2 more than our first number.
-39 + 2 = -37
Second number: -37
We can double check this:
-39 + (-37) = -39 - 37 = -76
There are two negative roots to the provided polynomial function
f(x) = x⁷ – 2x⁴ + 7x² + 2x – 2
<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>Polynomial is the combination of variables and constants systematically with "n" number of power in ascending or descending order.
We have a polynomial function:
f(x) = x⁷ – 2x⁴ + 7x² + 2x – 2
Using the zero product property:
After solving:
x = -1, x = -0.853, and x = 0.418 (using the graph method)
Thus, there are two negative roots to the provided polynomial function
f(x) = x⁷ – 2x⁴ + 7x² + 2x – 2
