<span>There are 10,000 (10*10*10*10) possible sequences. There are 4C3 ways, 4, of having exactly three digits be the same value. The differing digit can be any of the four positions. There are 10P2 ways, 90 (10*9), to choose the digits of the sequence since we have 10 choices for the digit to be repeated, then 9 more options or the differing digit. The product of the combination arrangements and permutation selection, 4*90, shows there are 360 sequences with three of the same digit. Thus the probability is 360/10,000 or 0.036 or 3.6%.</span>

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x^5
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 12?

A).f(x) = 3x5 – 2x4 – 9x3 + x2 – 12

B).f(x) = 3x6 – 2x5 + 9x4 – x3 + 12x

C).f(x) = 12x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 3

D).f(x) = 12x5 – 8x4 + 36x3 – 4x2 + 48

Solution:

The function given to us is:

3x5 – 2x4 + 9x3 – x2 + 12

Find the factors of 12 and consider it as 'p'

The factors of 12 are:

p = +/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6

Now find the factors of 3 and consider it as 'q'

The factors of 3 are:

q = +/- 1 , +/- 3

We know that we write rational terms in p/q form.

Therefore the Rational roots are given by p/q

+/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6 , +/- 1/3 , +/- 2/3 , +/- 4/3

Now we will solve the first function given in part A.

f(x) = 3x^5 – 2x^4 - 9x^3 + x^2 - 12

Again find the factors of 12 and consider it as 'p'

The factors are:

p = +/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6

Now find the factors of 3 and consider it as 'q' .

q = +/- 1 , +/- 3

Rational root are given by p/q

+/- 1 , +/-2 , +/-3 , +/- 4 , +/-6 , +/- 1/3 , +/- 2/3 , +/- 4/3

Therefore the rational roots of the given function matches the rational roots of the given equation.

Hence the correct option is A

Alaska has 1,700,000 square kilometers. Flordia has a landarea one tenth the size of Alaska. What is the landarea of Florid
Scrat [10]
The land area of Florida is 170 000 square kilometres, this is because 1 700 000 divided by 10 is 170 000.
