Answer:D.) 3, √2, −√2


Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial: f(x)=x^3-3x^2-2x+6

Let's check all the given options, by substituting given value on x.

A.) −3, −√2, −√2

f(-3)=(-3)^3-3(-3)^2-2(-3)+6=-27-27+6+6=-42\neq 0

⇒ -3 is not a zero of given polynomial.

Thus, this not the required answer.

B.) 3, −√2, −√2

f(3)=(3)^3-3(3)^2-2(3)+6=27-27-6+6=0

f(-\sqrt{2})=(-\sqrt{2})^3-3(-\sqrt{2})^2-2(-\sqrt{2})+6\\\\=-2\sqrt{2}-6+2\sqrt{2}+6=0

But by Descartes rule of sigs , f(x) have 2 positive and 1 negative root.

Thus, this is not the right answer.

C.) −3, √2, √2

-3 is not a zero of given polynomial.

Thus, this not the required answer.

D.) 3, √2, −√2

f(-3)=(-3)^3-3(-3)^2-2(-3)+6=-27-27+6+6=-42\neq 0

f(\sqrt{2})=(\sqrt{2})^3-3(\sqrt{2})^2-2(\sqrt{2})+6\\\\=2\sqrt{2}-6-2\sqrt{2}+6=0

f(-\sqrt{2})=(-\sqrt{2})^3-3(-\sqrt{2})^2-2(-\sqrt{2})+6\\\\=-2\sqrt{2}-6+2\sqrt{2}+6=0

Thus, this is the right option to have zeroes of f(x).

What is the best description of the relation?
Pie

Answer:

The relation is <u>not</u> a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relation in which no two ordered pairs have the same input  and different outputs. Whenever you're trying to determine whether a given relation is a function, observe whether each input corresponds with <u><em>exactly</em></u> one output.

In this case, the answer is no.  The input value of 10 corresponds with two output values, 4 and 20.  It only takes one input value to associate with more than one output value to be <u>invalid</u> as a function.

Therefore, the given relation is <em><u>not</u></em> a function.

Answer:

<h2>10 1/4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert everything to eighths:

4 4/8 + 2 6/8 + 3 1/8 = (4 + 2 + 3) + (1/8 + 4/8 + 6/8) = 9 + (1/8+4/8+6/8) = 9 5/8+6/8 = 9 11/8 = 10 2/8 = 10 1/4
