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

What is the solution of x+8/5x-1>0?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

x<-8 or x>1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x+8}{5x-1} >0

First we replace > symbol by = sign

\frac{x+8}{5x-1} =0

To solve for x we multiply 5x-1 on both sides

x+8 =0

x=-8

5x-1=0 solve for x

x= 1/5

WE got two values x=-8  and x= 1/5

Now we make a number line and check with each interval

x<-8,  -8<x<1/5,  x>1/5

Pick x= -9 and check with the given inequality

\frac{-9+8}{5(-9)-1} >0

1/46 >0 is true, so x<-8 satisfies our inequality

Pick x= 0 and check with the given inequality

\frac{0+8}{5(0)-1} >0

-8 >0 is false , -8<x<1/5 does not satifies our inequality

Pick x= 2 and check with the given inequality

\frac{2+8}{5(2)-1} >0

10/9>0 is true , x>1/5  satisfies our inequality
