X^3-6x^2 11x-6=0 a. 1,-5,4 1/3 b. 1,5,4 1/3 c. 0,-5,-4 1/3 d. 0,5,-4 1/3

1 answer:

4 0

X^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 = 0
f(1) = 1^3 - 6(1)^2 + 11(1) - 6 = 1 - 6 + 11 - 6 = 0
This means that x - 1 is a factor of x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 = 0

   x^2 - 5x + 6
      ___________________
x - 1 | x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6
   - | x^3 - x^2
   |______________
   | -5x^2 + 11x - 6
   - |     -5x^2 + 5x
   |_____________________
   | 6x - 6
   - | 6x - 6

x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 = (x - 1)(x^2 - 5x + 6) = (x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)
Therefore, solutions to x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 are 1, 2 and 3.

Help! I have looked at so many lessons on writing exponential functions from a graph and nothing has helped.

Over [174]

Answer:

y = $8(-\frac{1}{2})^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the exponential function is,

y = a(b)ˣ

Since the graph of this function passes through two points $(4, \frac{1}{2})$ and (3, -1)

For the point $(4, \frac{1}{2})$ ,

$\frac{1}{2}=a(b)^4$ ---------(1)

For second point (3, -1),

-1 = a(b)³ ---------(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1),

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{-1}$ = $\frac{a(b)^4}{a(b)^3}$

$-\frac{1}{2}=b^{(4-3)}$

$-\frac{1}{2}=b$

From equation (2)

-1 = $a(-\frac{1}{2})^3$

-1 = $-\frac{1}{8}a$

a = 8

Therefore, equation of the exponential function will be,

y = $8(-\frac{1}{2})^x$

Please help!

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

$4 \sin( \frac{2}{7}x ) + 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let use the basic function of sin first.

Since the midline is 1 and the max point is 5, the amplitude is 4.

The midline is 1 since the midline is at 0,1.

Since we know the distance of the max and midline x values

We can multiply that by 4 to find our period.

$\frac{7\pi}{4} \times 4 = 7\pi$

Use the equation 2pi/b to find the b we would use in our equation.

$\frac{2\pi}{b} = 7\pi$

The answer is

$\frac{2}{7}$

so our equation is

$4 \sin( \frac{2}{7}x ) + 1$

Rewrite the following statement using a number in scientific notation.

Mila [183]

Answer:

3.1 x 10^11

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that giga means billion, we can piece together that 310 gigabytes = 310 billion

310 billion = 310,000,000,000

When writing in scientific notation, we move the decimal point over until there is only a single digit to the right of the decimal point.

Currently the decimal point is all the way at the end of the 310 billion.

310,000,000,000.

We need to move it over to the left, keeping count of how many times we do so, and stopping when there is only one digit to the right of the decimal.

We end up with: 3.10000000000 or 3.1

We moved the decimal over 11 times. This can be represented by the value 10^11 (pronounced as "10 to the 11th power")

Now, we combine these two to create 3.1 x 10^11

We must multiply the 3.1 by 10^11 in order to create the same amount as 310,000,000,000 (310 billion). If we were to leave 3.1 alone, it would not represent 310 billion.

Thus, we leave this as 3.1 x 10^11 which is scientific notation.
