Answer:

f(x) = x^{3} + 4x^{2} -7x^{} -10^{}

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of the polynomial function are given us as -5,-1,2

If the zeros of a polynomial function are α,β,ω, the polynomial function can be obtained using the expression below:

f(x) = (x - α)(x - β)(x - ω)

where α = -5, β = -1, and ω = 2

f(x)=(x-(-5) )(x -(-1))(x - 2) = (x+5)(x+1)(x-2)\\\\f(x)=(x+5)(x^{2} -2x + x -2) = (x+5)(x^{2}  -x-2)\\\\f(x)=x(x^{2}  -x-2)+5(x^{2}  -x-2)\\\\f(x)= x^{3} - x^{2} -2x + 5x^{2} - 5x - 10\\\\f(x)= x^{3} + 4x^{2} -7x - 10

<em>NB: To arrive at the answer, expand the brackets and after expansion, collect like terms to obtain the final answer</em>

Maths Questions box 51.The function f: R→ R is twice differentiable and for any x ER we have g(x) = f(4-x²), if f'(1) = -5 and f
mrs_skeptik [129]

By the chain rule,

g(x) = f(4 - x^2) \\\\ \implies g'(x) = -2x f'(4 - x^2) \\\\ \implies g''(x) = -2 f'(4 - x^2) + 4x^2 f''(4 - x^2)

Observe that

4 - x^2 = 1 \implies x^2 = 3 \implies x = \pm\sqrt3

Then

g''(\sqrt3) = -2 f'(1) + 4\left(\sqrt3\right)^2 f''(1) = -2(-5) + 4(3)(-1) = \boxed{-2}

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes thrqugh (-4, -3) and is
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line y = mx + c

The new line is perpendicular to 2x - 3y = -5

                                         - 3y = - 5 - 2x

                                           3y = 2x + 5

                                            y =\frac{2x}{3} + \frac{5}{3}

Since the lines are perpendicular to each other : m_{1} . m_{2} = -1

where m_{1} \ slope \ of \ the \  given  \ line  \ and  \ m_{2} \  slope \ of \ the  \ new  \line\\.

Slope of the given line

                m_{1} = \frac{2}{3}

Slope of the new line

                \\\frac{2}{3}.m_{2} = -1\\  m_{2} = -1 . \frac{3}{2}   = \frac{-3}{2}

The equation to the new line passing through (-4, -3) and perpendicular to 2x - 3y = -5

                            (y - y_{1}) = m_{2}(x-x_{2} )\\\\(y - (-4)) = \frac{-3}{2}(x - (-3)) \\\\(y + 4) = \frac{-3}{2} (x+ 3)\\\\2(y +4) = -3(x+3)\\\\2y + 8 = -3x -9 \\\\2y = -3x - 9 -8\\\\y = \frac{-3x}{2} - \frac{17}{2}
