Verify that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

i) Since P(2), P(-1) and P(½) gives 0, then it's true that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial.

ii) - the sum of the zeros and the corresponding coefficients are the same

-the Sum of the products of roots where 2 are taken at the same time is same as the corresponding coefficient.

-the product of the zeros of the polynomial is same as the corresponding coefficient

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the cubic polynomial;

p(x) = 2x³ - 3x² - 3x + 2

For us to verify that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial, we will plug them into the equation and they must give a value of zero.

Thus;

P(2) = 2(2)³ - 3(2)² - 3(2) + 2 = 16 - 12 - 6 + 2 = 0

P(-1) = 2(-1)³ - 3(-1)² - 3(-1) + 2 = -2 - 3 + 3 + 2 = 0

P(½) = 2(½)³ - 3(½)² - 3(½) + 2 = ¼ - ¾ - 3/2 + 2 = -½ + ½ = 0

Since, P(2), P(-1) and P(½) gives 0,then it's true that 2,-1 and 1⁄2 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial.

Now, let's verify the relationship between the zeros and the coefficients.

Let the zeros be as follows;

α = 2

β = -1

γ = ½

The coefficients are;

a = 2

b = -3

c = -3

d = 2

So, the relationships are;

α + β + γ = -b/a

αβ + βγ + γα = c/a

αβγ = -d/a

Thus,

First relationship α + β + γ = -b/a gives;

2 - 1 + ½ = -(-3/2)

1½ = 3/2

3/2 = 3/2

LHS = RHS; So, the sum of the zeros and the coefficients are the same

For the second relationship, αβ + βγ + γα = c/a it gives;

2(-1) + (-1)(½) + (½)(2) = -3/2

-2 - 1½ + 1 = -3/2

-1½ - 1½ = -3/2

-3/2 = - 3/2

LHS = RHS, so the Sum of the products of roots where 2 are taken at the same time is same as the coefficient

For the third relationship, αβγ = -d/a gives;

2 * -1 * ½ = -2/2

-1 = - 1

LHS = RHS, so the product of the zeros(roots) is same as the corresponding coefficient

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

0.337 = 33.7% probability that one of the eight children has a food allergy.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each children, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a food allergy, or they do not. The probability of a child having food allergy is independent of any other child. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
