Which of the following is a polynomial with roots: − square root of 5 , square root of 5 , and −3?

1 answer:

4 0

Roots: - √5 , √5, and - 3

=> these are factors of the polynomial: (x + √5), (x - √5), and (x + 3).

Multiply those three factors:

(x + √5) (x - √5) ( x + 3) = [x^2 - 5] ( x + 3 ) = x^2 + 3x^2 - 5x - 15

Therefore the polynomial x^2 + 3x^2 - 5x - 15 is a polynomial with the given roots.

Answer: option B. x^3 + 3x^2 - 5x - 15

The population of a certain species of bird in a region after t years can be modeled by the function P(t)= 1620/1+1.15e^-0.042t

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is $\frac{1620}{1+1.15e^{-0.042t}}$

To find the maximum population, we need to set t towards infinity to get our answer.

So, we replace time with maximum ( $\infty$ ). Let's check:

$\frac{1620}{1+1.15e^{-0.042t}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+\frac{1.15}{e^{0.042t}}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+\frac{1.15}{e^{0.042(\infty)}}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+\frac{1.15}{\infty}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+0}\\=\frac{1620}{1}\\=1620$
