Determine the equation whose roots are –1 –5 and –3

1 answer:

5 0

Well you are given the roots.

if we have 3 it would.have to be x^3. So something like:

y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d

this could.also be written:

y = (x + a) (x + b) (x + c)

when you are able to write it like this, we know that the opposite of a, b, and c are roots. this is because if we can make any of the insides of the 3 parenthesis equal 0 then y = 0 and that x.is a root. Well if we know the 3 roots that x will be then we just have to figure out the a, b, and c. So let's plug our roots in.

y = (-1 + a) (-5 + b) (-3 + c)

now we have to make each parenthesis equal 0 to find what a, b, and c should be. It is obvious a = 1 to make.that one zero and b = 5 and c = 3. So we know a, b, and c. now let's plug.those into our first equation.

y = (x + 1) (x + 5) (x + 3)

this is your equation. You can multiply out if necessary

Answer:

Bianca's height = 42 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Bianca height.

Given:

Meredith height = 60 inches

We need to find the Bianca height.

Solution:

From the given statement the Meredith's height is $\frac{2}{3}$ of Bianca's height plus 32 inches, so the equation is.

Meredith's height = $\frac{2}{3}(Bianca\ height)+32$

Substitute Meredith's height in above equation.

$60=\frac{2}{3}x+32$

Now we solve the above equation for x.

$\frac{2}{3}x=60-32$

$\frac{2}{3}x=28$

By cross multiplication.

$x=\frac{3\times 28}{2}$

28 divided by 2.

$x= 3\times 14$

$x=42\ in$

Therefore, the height of the Bianca is 42 inches.

Construct potential hypotheses or research questions to relate the variables in each of the following examples -

Political party and support of the affordable care act -

Given this, there can be a relationship between the ideological group and the support of the moderate consideration act.
that various ideological groups may support various types of government disability conspiracies and might have various goals.
A few gatherings might focus on a list of topics or problems and might provide serious thought at some random time.
which might facilitate the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, while others would be gradually forgiving toward such arrangements.
The implementation and success of the Affordable Care Act may depend on the rise of certain ideological movements.

and their ability to express what they think about the Act's purpose.

Given that u =< 2,12 >, and z =< -7,5 >

swat32

Using the dot product:

For any vector x, we have

||x|| = √(x • x)

This means that

||w|| = √(w • w)

… = √((u + z) • (u + z))

… = √((u • u) + (u • z) + (z • u) + (z • z))

… = √(||u||² + 2 (u • z) + ||z||²)

We have

u = ⟨2, 12⟩ ⇒ ||u|| = √(2² + 12²) = 2√37

z = ⟨-7, 5⟩ ⇒ ||z|| = √((-7)² + 5²) = √74

u • z = ⟨2, 12⟩ • ⟨-7, 5⟩ = -14 + 60 = 46

and so

||w|| = √((2√37)² + 2•46 + (√74)²)

… = √(4•37 + 2•46 + 74)

… = √314 ≈ 17.720

Alternatively, without mentioning the dot product,

w = u + z = ⟨2, 12⟩ + ⟨-7, 5⟩ = ⟨-5, 17⟩

and so

||w|| = √((-5)² + 17²) = √314 ≈ 17.720
