Ben is 140cm tall. Mike is 1090mm tall. who is taller? How much taller?

1 answer:

6 0

Cm=centimetres

Mm=millimetres

1 meter=100 centimeters

1 meter=1,000 millimeters

So to solve your equation, you divide 140 by 100cm (since he is measured in centimetres)

140cm÷100cm=1.4 meters-is Ben's height

To solve Mike's height, you divide 1090 by 1,000mm (since he is measured in Millimetres)

1,090mm÷1,000mm=1.09 meters-is Mike's height

1.4 meters is greater than 1.09 meters

To see by how much, you subtract 1.4m by 1.09

$1.4-1.09=.31m$

$1.4>1.09$

Mike is taller than Mike by .31 meters or 31 in centimetres or 310 in millimetres

Report Error Suppose $P(x)$ is a polynomial of smallest possible degree such that: $\bullet$ $P(x)$ has rational coefficients $\

Answer:

We want a polynomial of smallest degree with rational coefficients with zeros in $\sqrt{7}$ , $1 - \sqrt{6}$ and -3. The last root gives us the factor (x+3). Hence, our polynomial is

$P(x) =(x+3)q(x)$

where $q$ is a polynomial with rational coefficients and roots $\sqrt{7}$ and $1 - \sqrt{6}$ . The root $\sqrt{7}$ gives us a factor $x-\sqrt{7}$ , but in order to obtain rational coefficients we must consider the factor $x^2-7$ .

An analogue idea works with $1 - \sqrt{6}$ . For convenience write $x - 1 + \sqrt{6} = ( x - 1) + \sqrt{6}$ . This gives the factor $(x-1)^2-6$ . Hence,

$P(x) = (x+3)(x^2-7)((x-1)^2-6)=x^5+x^4-18x^3-22x^2+77x+105$

Notice that $P(-1)=24$ . So, in order to satisfy the last condition we divide by 3 the whole polynomial, without altering its roots. Finally, the wanted polynomial is

$P(x) =(1/3)x^5+(1/3)x^4-6x^3-(22/3)x^2+(77/3)x+35$

Step-by-step explanation:

We must have present that any polynomial it's determined by its roots up to a constant factor. But here we have irrational ones, in order to eliminate the irrational coefficients that a factor of the type $x-\sqrt7$ will introduce in the expression, we need to multiply by its conjugate $x+\sqrt7$ . Hence, we will obtain $x^2-7$ that have rational coefficients. Finally, the last condition is given with the intention to fix the constant factor. Usually it is enough to evaluate in the point and obtain the necessary factor.
