Answer:
- y = (x - 4)(x + 2i)(x - 2i)(x + √3)(x - √3) Possible answer
- y = (x - 4)(x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 3) Possible answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The simplest answer is that 2i cannot be a lone root. It must have a twin that is - 2i
√3 has the same sort of rule. It cannot be a root all by itself. It also must have a twin, in this case -√3
So the answer must be
(x - 4)(x + 2i)(x - 2i)(x + √3)(x - √3) <<< Possible answer
but this can be reduced even further.
- (x + 2i)(x - 2i) = x^2 - x*2i + x*2i - 4i^2
- (x + 2i)(x - 2i) = x^2 - 4(i)^2
- (x + 2i)(x - 2i) = x^2 + 4. Remember i^2 = - 1
By a similar method (x - √3)(x + √3) = x^2 - 3
So the polynomial is reduced to
(x - 4)(x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 3) <<<< Answer
If this is not among your answers and the factored form is not either, please tell me what is.
300/250 can be divide by 50 which makes it 6/5
Answer:
1 : 2 : 5
Step-by-step explanation:
20 : 40 : 100 ( divide each part of the ratio by 20 , the HCF of 20, 40, 100 )
= 1 : 2 : 5
Is there a picture to go with this? That would help me answer the question.
