The <em>cubic</em> equation f(x) = x³ + 2 · x² + 4 · x + 8 has one <em>real</em> root and two <em>complex</em> roots.

<h3>What kind of roots does have a cubic equation? </h3>

In this problem we have a <em>cubic</em> equation and the nature of their roots must be inferred according to a <em>algebraic</em> method.

Cubic equations are polynomials of the form y = a · x³ + b · x² + c · x + d, there is a method to infer the nature of the roots of such polynomials: The discriminant from Cardano's method, an <em>analytical</em> method used to solve polynomials of the form a · x³ + b · x² + c · x + d = 0.

The discriminant is described below:

Δ = 18 · a · b · c · d - 4 · b³ · d + b² · c² - 4 · a · c³ - 27 · a² · d²      (1)

Where:

  1. There are three <em>distinct real</em> roots for Δ > 0.
  2. Real roots with multiplicity greater than 1 for Δ = 0.
  3. A <em>real</em> root and two <em>complex</em> roots for Δ < 0.

If we know that a = 1, b = 2, c = 4 and d = 8, then the nature of the roots is:

Δ = 18 · 1 · 2 · 4 · 8 - 4 · 2³ · 8 + 2² · 4² - 4 · 1 · 4³ - 27 · 1² · 8²

Δ = - 1024

The <em>cubic</em> equation f(x) = x³ + 2 · x² + 4 · x + 8 has one <em>real</em> root and two <em>complex</em> roots.

John bought 3 pencils for $0.75 each and a notebook for $4.25. If the tax rate is 5%, what is the total amount of John's purchas
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

$6.83

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate the before-tax total amount:

$0.75 + $0.75 + $0.75 + $4.25, or

3($0.75) + $4.25 = $2.25 + $4.25 = $6.50    (total before tax)

The before-tax total PLUS the 5% tax comes to:

$6.50 + 0.05($6.50) = $6.50 + $0.33  =  $6.83

What is the difrence between domain and range
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Domain is the set of all possible input values is any relation. It means the output value in a function depends upon each member of domain. Domain value vary in different mathematical problems and depends upon the function for which is it solved. If we talk about cosine, then domain is the set of all possible real numbers either above the 0 value or below the 0 value, it could also be 0. While for square root, the domain value could not be less than 0, it should be minimum 0 or above 0. In other words, you can say that domain of square root is always 0 or positive value. For complex and real equations, the domain value is a subset of complex or real vector space. If we want to solve a partially differential equation for finding the value of domain, then your answer should lie within three dimensional space of Euclidean geometry.
