Part 3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Luden [163]3 years ago

Answer:

   possible rational roots: ±1/2, ±1, ±5/2, ±5, ±25/2, ±25

   p(x) = (x +1)^2(2x -5)(x^2 -4x +5)

   complex roots: 2±i

   see the last attachment for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The leading coefficient of p(x) is 2, and the constant term is 25. The Rational Root Theorem tells you possible rational roots will be of the form ...

  ±(divisor of 25)/(divisor of 2)

That is, they are ...

  ±1/2, ±1, ±5/2, ±5, ±25/2, ±25

__

3. Before we get into synthetic division, we choose to see if we can reduce this list any. We note that p(0) = -25. The value of p(1) is the sum of the coefficients:

  p(1) = 2 -9 +6 +22 -20 -25 = 30 -54 = -24

Similarly, the value of p(-1) is the same sum with odd-degree coefficients negated:

  p(-1) = -2 -9 -6 +22 +20 -25 = 42 -42 = 0

So, we found our first root: -1. Using synthetic division, we can reduce the polynomial and start over. See the first attachment for this division.

__

The reduced polynomial is ...

  p1(x) = 2x^4 -11x^3 +17x^2 +5x -25

We already know that +1 is not a of it. Checking -1, we have ...

  p1(-1) = 2 +11 +17 -5 -25 = 0

So, we found our second root: -1. Using synthetic division, we can reduce the polynomial and start over. See the second attachment for this division.

__

The reduced polynomial is ...

  p2(x) = 2x^3 -13x^2 +30x -25

The alternating signs tell us there are no more negative real roots. They also tell us there are 1 or 3 positive real roots. We know p2(0) = -25. Then ...

  p2(1) = 2 -13 +30 -25 = 32 -38 = -6

The average rate of change between these points is (-6 -(-25))/(1 -0) = 19. At this rate, we expect a root between x=1 and x=2. Testing x=2 using synthetic division, we get a remainder of -1. (See the 3rd attachment.) Then the rate of change between x=1 and x=2 is (-1 -(-6))/(2-1) = 5, suggesting x=5/2 might be a worthwhile test value.

The synthetic division is shown in the 4th attachment. You will note that we divide the polynomial p2(x) by its leading coefficient, so the coefficients used for p2(x) in the synthetic division are 1, -13/2, 15, -25/2. The remainder of 0 tells us that (x -5/2) is a factor of p2(x)/2, or (2x -5) is a factor of p2(x).

__

The reduced polynomial is ...

  p3(x) = x^2 -4x +5

This can be written in vertex form as ...

  p3(x) = (x -2)^2 +1

The positive leading coefficient means the graph opens upward, and the vertex at (2, 1) means there are no real solutions.

The real solutions to p(x) are x = -1, -1, and 5/2.

__

4. The complex solutions will be the solutions to ...

  (x -2)^2 +1 = 0

  (x -2)^2 = -1

  x -2 = ±√(-1) = ±i

  x = 2 ±i . . . . complex roots of p(x)

__

5. The graph is shown in the last attachment. The odd degree and positive leading coefficient of p(x) means the overall shape will be from lower left to upper right (/). That is, the sign of the end value of p(x) will match the sign of x.

The graph will touch the x-axis from below at x = -1, and will cross at x = 2.5. There is no particular symmetry.

The final quadratic factor is graphed and its vertex shown. The vertex matches that of the vertex-form equation for p3(x), above.

The prices of commodities X,Y,Z are respectively x, y, z, rupees per unit. Mr. A purchases 4 units of Z and sells 3 units of X a
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

(x,y,z)=(1477, 1464, 1437)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the selling of the units positive earning and the purchasing of the units negative earning.

<h3>Case-1:</h3>
  • Mr. A purchases 4 units of Z and sells 3 units of X and 5 units of Y
  • Mr.A earns Rs6000

So, the equation would be

3x  +  5y - 4z = 6000

<h3>Case-2:</h3>
  • Mr. B purchases 3 units of Y and sells 2 units of X and 1 units of Z
  • Mr B neither lose nor gain meaning he has made 0₹

hence,

2x   - 3y  +  z = 0

<h3>Case-3:</h3>
  • Mr. C purchases 1 units of X and sells 4 units of Y and 6 units of Z
  • Mr.C earns 13000₹

therefore,

- x    + 4y  +  6z = 13000

Thus our system of equations is

\begin{cases}3x  +  5y - 4z = 6000\\2x   - 3y  +  z = 0\\ - x    + 4y  +  6z = 13000\end{cases}

<u>Solving </u><u>the </u><u>system </u><u>of </u><u>equations</u><u>:</u>

we will consider elimination method to solve the system of equations. To do so ,separate the equation in two parts which yields:

\begin{cases}3x  +  5y - 4z = 6000\\2x   - 3y  +  z = 0\end{cases}\\\begin{cases}2x   - 3y  +  z = 0\\ - x    + 4y  +  6z = 13000\end{cases}

Now solve the equation accordingly:

\implies\begin{cases}11x-7y=6000\\-13x+22y=13000\end{cases}

Solving the equation for x and y yields:

\implies\begin{cases}x= \dfrac{223000}{151}\\\\y= \dfrac{221000}{151}\end{cases}

plug in the value of x and y into 2x - 3y + z = 0 and simplify to get z. hence,

\implies z= \dfrac{217000}{151}

Therefore,the prices of commodities X,Y,Z are respectively approximately 1477, 1464, 1437

How do you write 2,252/ 1,000 as a percentage?
REY [17]
225% 2252/1000 is a fraction so you divide and get 2.25 and move the decimal point over two to the right.
