Answer:

distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

distributive property, because 4 carries over to each variable and then the two product are added.

4(x+y)=4x+4y

xz_007 [3.2K]

10% of all the cars is 20 limos.

20 * 10 = 200 cars total.

limos + vans + sedans = total cars
200 cars total - 20 limos - 60 vans = x sedans

x = 120 sedans

Find a third-degree polynomial function with real coefficients and with zeros at -4 and -3 5i

Charra [1.4K]

If -3+5i is a solution, then by the conjugate root theorem, -3-5i is also a solution. We find the polynomial by multiplying together the factors. If x = -4, then x + 4 is the factor. If x = -3+5i, then (x-(-3+5i)) is a factor, and so is (x-(-3-5i)). Simplifying those down gives us as the first factor as (x+3-5i) and the second as (x+3+5i). We can FOIL those 2 together to get their product, and then FOIL in x+4. FOILing the 2 complex factors together gives us $x^2+3x+15ix+3x+9+15i-15ix-15i-25i^2$ . If we combine like terms and cross out things that cancel it's much easier than what it looks like there! It simplifies down to $x^2+6x-25i^2$ . Since i^2 = -1, it simplifies further to $x^2+6x-25(-1)$ and finally, to $x^2+6x+25$ . Now we will FOIL in x+4. $(x^2+6x+25)(x+4)=x^3+6x^2+25x+4x^2+24x+100$ . Our final simplified third degree polynomial is $x^3+10x^2+49x+100$
