Find the roots of the polynomial equation.
2 answers:
Set f(x) = x³ - 2x² + 10x + 136. Use Descartes' rule of signs. f(x) has 2 change in sign, so there are (1) 2 real roots, or (ii) a pair of conjugate imaginary roots. f(-x) = -x³ - 2x² - 10x + 136 f(-x) has 1 sign change so there is 1 real root. Scan the function for the first zero crossing, using negative values of x. x f(x) --- --------- -1 123 -2 100 -3 61 -4 0 x = -4 is a root, so (x+4) is a factor. Perform synthetic division (or long division if you do not know synthetic division). -4 | 1 -2 10 136 -4 24 -136 --------------------- 1 -6 34 0 Therefore f(x) = (x+4)(x²- 6x + 34) = 0 Before factoring x² - 6x + 34, test the discriminant. D = (-6)² - 4*34 = -100 => we have a pair of imaginary roots. Use the quadratic formula. x = (1/2)[6 +/- √-100] = 3 +/- 5i Answer: C The roots are -4, 3 +/- 5i
The answer (Which is 3 +/- 5i, -4) is now B on the Unit 6 Test.

Answer:
42.86%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Reduction in price = $70.00 - $40.00 = $30.00
Reduction in percentage = ($30.00 ÷ $70.00) x 100 = 42.86%
The price of the videogame was reduced by 42.86%.
