Pre-Calc: Find all the zeros of the function.

Mathematics
1 answer:
uysha [10]1 year ago

The zeros of the polynomial function are y = 4/5, y = -4/5 and y = ±4/5√i and the polynomial as a product of the linear factors is f(y) = (5y - 4)(5y + 4)(25y^2 + 16)

<h3>What are polynomial expressions?</h3>

Polynomial expressions are mathematical statements that are represented by variables, coefficients and operators

<h3>How to determine the zeros of the polynomial?</h3>

The polynomial equation is given as

f(y) = 625y^4 - 256

Express the terms as an exponent of 4

So, we have

f(y) = (5y)^4 - 4^4

Express the terms as an exponent of 2

So, we have

f(y) = (25y^2)^2 - 16^2

Apply the difference of two squares

So, we have

f(y) = (25y^2 - 16)(25y^2 + 16)

Apply the difference of two squares

So, we have

f(y) = (5y - 4)(5y + 4)(25y^2 + 16)

Set the equation to 0

So, we have

(5y - 4)(5y + 4)(25y^2 + 16) = 0

Expand the equation

So, we have

5y - 4 = 0, 5y + 4 = 0 and 25y^2 + 16 = 0

This gives

5y = 4, 5y = -4 and 25y^2 = -16

Solve the factors of the equation

So, we have

y = 4/5, y = -4/5 and y = ±4/5√i

Hence, the zeros of the polynomial function are y = 4/5, y = -4/5 and y = ±4/5√i

How to write the polynomial as a product of the linear factors?

In (a), we have

The polynomial equation is given as

f(y) = 625y^4 - 256

Express the terms as an exponent of 4

So, we have

f(y) = (5y)^4 - 4^4

Express the terms as an exponent of 2

So, we have

f(y) = (25y^2)^2 - 16^2

Apply the difference of two squares

So, we have

f(y) = (25y^2 - 16)(25y^2 + 16)

Apply the difference of two squares

So, we have

f(y) = (5y - 4)(5y + 4)(25y^2 + 16)

Hence, the polynomial as a product of the linear factors is f(y) = (5y - 4)(5y + 4)(25y^2 + 16)

Explain why one half times two equals one whole
djverab [1.8K]
Two halfs equal one whole. think of it like this, an orange cut in half leaves you with two halfs, put them together and you have a whole. simple. multiplying by 2 just means adding a number two times.
1 half plus one half= 2halves= 1 whole
1half x 2= 2 halves=1 whole

Mariana [72]

Based on the given problem above, if we analyze it, we are going to look for the graph which with coordinates (0,6) which represents starting out with 6 gallons, and ending at (4,0). So, the graph that best represents this situation would be the first graph on the top left. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!

What are the zeros of the function below?
Ivan
When you want to find zeros of rational expression you need to find at which points numerator is equal to zero. In this case, we have the product of three expressions.
x(x-1)(x+11)=0
A product is equal to zero whenever one of the factors is equal to zero. 
That means that zeros of our functions are:
1)x=0
2)x-1=0
x=1
3)x+11=0
x=-11
The final answer is a. Function has zeros at (0, 1, -11).
