This is going to be a fourth degree polynomial because if x = 4, one of the factors is x - 4; if x = -2, then one of the factors is x + 2; and by the conjugate root theorem, if x = -1 + 2i, then -1-2i HAS to also be a root. If x = -1+2i, then the factor is (x-(-1+2i)). Simplfying that gives us (x+1-2i). Likewise, if x = -1-2i, then the factor is (x-(-1-2i)). Simplifying that gives us (x+1+2i). We will FOIL those complex factors first. Doing that we have x^2+x-2ix+x+1-2i+2ix+2i-4i^2. Once we simplify that down it's much easier to deal with than what it looks like right now. x^2+2x+1-4i^2. Since i^2 = -1, what we have in the end is x^2+2x+5. Now we will multiply that by x-4. (x^2+2x+5)(x-4)=x^3-2x^2-3x-20. Now finally we will multiply in the last factor of x+2. x^4-7x^2-26x-40 is your final fourth degree polynomial.

Answer:

x^{4} - 7x^{2} -26x-40

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial will be a fourth degree polynomial.

Let's take x = 4, then one of the factors is x - 4.

Then if x = -2, then the factor will be:

x + 2 = -2+ 2

x + 2 = 0

Then one of the polynomials is x + 2

Using the conjugate theorem:

if x = -1 + 2i, then -1-2i will be the root.

Then if x = -1+ 2i, then the factor of the function will be x- 1- 2i

Similarly, if x = -1-2i, then the factor x -(-1-2i)

This gives the final expression:

x^{4} -7x^{2} -26x-40

Find (f•f) (0)<br> F(x)=3x-2
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:  (f·f)(0) = 4

              (fof)(0) = -8

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 3x - 2

(f·f)(x) = (3x - 2)(3x - 2)

         = 9x² - 12x + 4

(f·f)(0) = 9(0)² - 12(0) + 4

          = 4

(fof) = 3(3x - 2) - 2

       = 9x - 8

(fof)(0) = 9(0) - 8

           = -8

if a, b, and c are prime numbers, do (a b) and c have a common factor that is greater than 1? (1) a, b, and c are all different
klio [65]

If a,b, and c are prime numbers, do (a*b) and c have a common factor that is greater than 1

(1) a,b, and c are all different prime numbers

(2) c≠2

1. Let's assume values of 1,3 and 5 to a, b, and c respectively

a b = 1*3 = 3

3 and 5 do not have any common factor aside 1

Let's assume values of 1,3 and 2 to a,b and c respectively

a *b = 1*3 = 3

3 and 2 does not have a common factor aside 1

2. c \neq 2

Let's assume values of 2,7 and 3 to a b and c response

a * b = 2 *7 = 14

14 and 3 does not have a common factor aside 1
