Finding a polynomial of a given degree with given zeros

Mathematics
1 answer:
galben [10]1 year ago
5 0

Since f(x) is a polynomial with 3rd degree, then it will have 3 roots (zeroes)

One of them is real and the other two are complex conjugate roots

Since the real root is 4, then

x = 4

Since the complex root is (1 - i), then

The other root will be the conjugate of it (1 + i)

x = (1 - i)

x = (1 + i)

To find f(x) we will multiply the three factors of it

We can get the factors from the zeroes

x=4

Subtract 4 from both sides

\begin{gathered} x-4=4-4 \\ x-4=0 \end{gathered}

The first factor is (x - 4)

\begin{gathered} x=1-i \\ x-(1-i)=(1-i)-(1-i) \\ x-1+i=0 \end{gathered}

The second factor is (x - 1 + i)

The third factor is (x - 1 - i)

f(x)=(x-4)(x-1+i)(x-1-i)

We will multiply them to find f(x)

\begin{gathered} (x-1+i)(x-1-i)= \\ x^2-x-ix-x+1+i+ix-i-(i^2)= \\ x^2-2x+1-(-1)= \\ x^2-2x+1+1= \\ x^2-2x+2 \end{gathered}

Multiply it by (x - 4)

\begin{gathered} f(x)=(x-4)(x^2-2x+2) \\ f(x)=x^3-2x^2+2x-4x^2+8x-8 \\ f(x)=x^3-6x^2+10x-8 \end{gathered}

The answer is

f(x)=x^3-6x^2+10x-8

A car leaving a stop sign accelerates...what is the average speed of the car, in feet per second, equation d=1.1t^2 average spee
spayn [35]

Answer:

10.27 feet/sec.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance traveled by the car, d in feet, is given by the function d = 1.1t^{2} .......... (1), where t is the time in seconds.

So, at t= 2 sec, from equation (1) we get d = 1.1 × 4 = 4.4 feet.

Again, at t = 5 sec, we get d = 1.1 × 32 = 35.2 feet.

Now, average speed of the car from t = 2 sec. to t = 5 sec. will be give by

\frac{\textrm {Total distance traveled}}{\textrm {Total time spent}}

= \frac{35.2 - 4.4}{5 - 2} = 10.27 feet/sec. (Answer)
