If a polynomial function f(x) has roots -8, 1, and 6i, what must also be a root of f(x)?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

it must also have the root : - 6i

Step-by-step explanation:

If a polynomial is expressed with real coefficients (which must be the case if it is a function f(x) in the Real coordinate system), then if it has a complex root "a+bi", it must also have for root the conjugate of that complex root.

This is because in order to render a polynomial with Real coefficients, the binomial factor  (x - (a+bi)) originated using the complex root would be able to eliminate the imaginary unit, only when multiplied by the binomial factor generated by its conjugate: (x - (a-bi)). This is shown below:

(x-(a+bi))*(x-(a-bi))=\\(x-a-bi)*(x-a+bi)=\\([x-a]-bi)*([x-a]+bi)=\\(x-a)^2-(bi)^2=\\(x-a)^2-b^2(-1)=\\(x-a)^2+b^2

where the imaginary unit has disappeared, making the expression real.

So in our case, a+bi is -6i (real part a=0, and imaginary part b=-6)

Then, the conjugate of this root would be: +6i, giving us the other complex root that also may be present in the real polynomial we are dealing with.

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the equation?
soldier1979 [14.2K]


To solve this you want to plug in your x's and y's to see if they match.

A. 3(11)-4=33-4=29 and 29 is not equal to 5 so A is not a solution

B.3(5)-4=15-4=11=11  3(3)-4=9-4=5 and 5 is not equal to 2 so B is not a solution

C. 3(2)-4= 6-4=2 2 is not equal to 3 so C is not a solution

D is the answer. 3(5)-4=11 and 3(2)-4= 2

Please and thank you
KatRina [158]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf x = 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

If the given polygon is a regular polygon, its sides are equal.

This means:

x^2+4=x^2+x

Subtract x^2 to both sides

4 = x

OR

x = 4

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

Answer:

x=-1, y=1. (-1, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

5y-6=x

y=-x

-----------

5(-x)-6=x

-5x-6=x

-5x-x=6

-6x=6

x=6/-6

x=-1

y=-(-1)=1
