The given function is
f(x) = x⁴ - 4x³ + 21x² - 4x + 20

A zero is 2 - 4i. Because it is complex, it should have a conjugate of 2 + 4i.
The product of the two complex conjugates yield
(2 - 4)*(2 + 4i) = 2² - 4²i² = 4 + 16 = 20

The two complex factors are [x-(2-4i] and [x-((2+4i)].
Therefore a real factor is
x² - x(2+4i+2-4i) + 20 = x² - 4x + 20

Perform long division.
                                     x²          + 1
                ------------------------------------
x²-4x+20 | x⁴ - 4x³ + 21x² - 4x + 20
                  x⁴ - 4x³ + 20x²
                 ----------------------------------
                                      x² - 4x + 20
                                      x² - 4x + 20

Therefore another real factor is (x² + 1).
The complex zeros of x² + 1 are i and -i.

Answer: One other zero is either i or -i.

Given f(x) = 5x^6 what is the domain?5 < X ≤ 6x ≥ 0X ≤ Oall real numbers
Vilka [71]

The domain is the set of all possible x-values which will make the function "work", and will output real y-values

\begin{gathered} \text{Let} \\ f(x)=5x^6 \\  \end{gathered}

there is not a value for x, that makes the function does not "work", so x can take any value, in other words all real numbers

so, the answer is all real numbers

4 / u^2 (when u = 2)
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation \frac{4}{u^{2} } for u = 2.

Which would be \frac{4}{2^{2} }=\frac{4}{4}=1

100 POINT AND BRAINIEST FOR BEST CORRECT ANSWER!
slava [35]
<h3>Answer:   P(x) = 0.50x - 5</h3>

==========================================

Explanation:

x = number of glasses sold

She charges $0.50 per glass, so her revenue is

R(x) = 0.50x

which is the amount of money she brings in

--------

Her cost function is

C(x) = 5

assuming she only spends that $5.00 on the supplies mentioned.

--------

The profit P(x) is the difference of revenue and cost

Profit = Revenue - Cost

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = 0.50x - 5

The volume of a rectangular prism is (x^3-3x^2 +5x-3) and the area of its base is (x^2-2) if the volume of a rectangular prism i
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is the product of its base area and height. That is to say:

Volume = Base Area x Height

Where: x^3-3x^2 +5x-3

Height: x^2-2

Volume =

Solving for "Height" we have:

Height = Volume / Base Area

Height = (x^3-3x^2 +5x-3) / (x^2-2)

Using ruffinis law we have that the solution is:

x-3 with a remainder of 7x-9

That is to say:

x-3 + (7x-9)/(x^2 - 2)

That is option A.
