Answer:

Γ = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x² - 8x + Γ

with a = 1, b = - 8 and c = Γ , then

sum of zeros α + β = - \frac{b}{a} = - \frac{-8}{1} = 8

product of zeros = αβ = \frac{c}{a} = Γ

Given α - β = 2 , then

(α - β)² = 2²

α² - 2αβ + β² = 4 → (1)

and

(α + β)² = 8²

α² + 2αβ + β² = 64 → (2)

Add (1) and (2) term by term

2α² + 2β² = 68 ( divide through by 2 )

α² +β² = 34

Substitute α² + β² = 34 into (1)

34 - 2αβ = 4 ( subtract 34 from both sides )

- 2αβ = - 30 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

αβ = 15

Now

αβ = Γ = 15

Thus

f(x) = x² - 8x + 15

Simplify the expression. Write the answer using scientific notation. 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3)
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

0.3(8.2 x 10^-3) = 2.46 X 10 ^ -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3) and write answer in scientific notation.

Solving,

= 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3)

= 0.3 * 0.0082

= 0.00246

Writing in scientific notation

= 2.46 X 10 ^ -3

So, after solving the expression 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3) the result is 2.46 X 10 ^ -3.
