When roots of polynomials occur in radical form, they occur as two conjugates.
That is,
The conjugate of (a + √b) is (a - √b) and vice versa.
To show that the given conjugates come from a polynomial, we should create the polynomial from the given factors.

The first factor is x - (a + √b).
The second factor is x - (a - √b).

The polynomial is
f(x) = [x - (a + √b)]*[x - (a - √b)]
      = x² - x(a - √b) - x(a + √b) + (a + √b)(a - √b)
      = x² - 2ax + x√b - x√b + a² - b
      = x² - 2ax + a² - b

This is a quadratic polynomial, as expected.

If you solve the quadratic equation x² - 2ax + a² - b = 0 with the quadratic formula, it should yield the pair of conjugate radical roots.
x = (1/2) [ 2a +/- √(4a² - 4(a² - b)]
   = a +/- (1/2)*√(4b)
   = a +/- √b
x = a + √b, or x = a - √b, as expected.

Find the limit. use l'hospital's rule if appropriate. if there is a more elementary method, consider using it. lim x→1 1 − x + l
AfilCa [17]

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{1-x+\ln x}{1+\cos5\pi x}

Evaluating the limand directly at x=1 gives an indeterminate form \dfrac00. Apply L'Hospital's rule once and we get

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{-1+\frac1x}{-5\pi\sin5\pi x}

Again, plugging in x=1 returns \dfrac00. Apply the rule once more:

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{-\frac1{x^2}}{-25\pi^2\cos5\pi x}=\frac1{25\pi^2}\lim_{x\to1}\frac1{x^2\cos5\pi x}

Now, in the denominator, when x=1 we get x^2\cos5\pi x=-1, so the limit is -\dfrac1{25\pi^2}.

Choose the list that shows these numbers in order from smallest to largest.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

0.3, 0.32, 0.321, 0.345

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum number of decimals shown in the series is 3.

Therefore, let's rewrite all the numbers with three decimal places.

0.32, 0.321, 0.3, 0.345 can be written as

0.320, 0.321, 0.300, 0.345

Now, we can easily compare the numbers and we can conclude:

0.300 < 0.320 < 0.321 < 0.345

Hence, the smallest to largest order is:

0.3, 0.32, 0.321, 0.345
