So, n = 3, is a 3rd degree polynomial, roots are -2 and 2i

well 2i is a complex root, or imaginary, and complex root never come all by their lonesome, their sister is always with them, the conjugate, so if 0+2i is there, 0-2i is there too

so, the roots are -2, 2i, -2i

now... \bf \begin{cases}
x=-2\implies x+2=0\implies &(x+2)=0\\
x=2i\implies x-2i=0\implies &(x-2i)=0\\
x=-2i\implies x+2i=0\implies &(x+2i)=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
(x+2)\underline{(x-2i)(x+2i)}=0\\\\

\\ \quad \\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
(x+2)[x^2-(2i)^2]=0\implies (x+2)[x^2-(2^2i^2)]=0
\\\\\\
(x+2)[x^2-(4\cdot -1)]=0\implies (x+2)(x^2+4)=0
\\\\\\
x^3+2x^2+4x+8=0

now, if we check f(-1), we end up with 5, not 15
hmmm

so, how to turn our 5 to 15? well, 3*5, thus

\bf 3(x^3+2x^2+4x+8)=f(x)\implies 3(5)=f(-1)\implies 15=f(-1)

usually, when we get the roots, or zeros, if any common factor that is a constant is about, they get in a division with 0 and get tossed, and aren't part of the roots, thus, we can simply add one, in this case, the common factor of 3, to make the 5 turn to 15

Imagine the diagonal distance is called c
Using Pythagorean theorem 40^2 + 9^2 = c^2
1600 + 81 = c^2
The square root of 1681 is 41
So c = 41

0.3(n-5)=0.4-0.2 solve for n!
mariarad [96]

Answer:

n = 5.67

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3(n-5)=0.4-0.2

0.3(n-5) = 0.2

Dividing 0.3 both side

\frac{0.3(n-5) }{0.3}  = \frac{0.2}{0.3}

n-5 = 0.67

n = 0.67+5

n = 5.67

Help me please I need to do this
Blizzard [7]

Consider the attached tree.

You start from the root, and with each level you create a sub-branch for each of the choices you have.

So, the root has two children, white and multigrain bread.

Each of those children has three children, because you have three meat choices

Each of those children has two children, because you have two cheese choices.

Then, you identify all the sandwiches by choosing a leaf, and read the label that lead you there.

For example, leaf number 4 represents a sandwich with white bread, turkey and provolone.
