Answer:

-1.0, 1.0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial function is

f(x) = 2 {x}^{4} - {x}^{3} + x - 2

According to the Rational Roots Theorem, the possible roots of this function are;

\pm1,\pm \frac{1}{2}

We now use the Remainder Theorem to obtain;

f(1) = 2 {(1)}^{4} - {(1)}^{3} + 1 - 2

f(1) = 2 - 1+ 1 - 2 = 0

f( - 1) = 2 {( - 1)}^{4} - {( - 1)}^{3} - 1 - 2  

f( - 1) = 2 + 1 - 1 - 2 = 0

But;

f( \frac{1}{2} ) = - 1.5

f( - \frac{1}{2} ) = - 2.25

Since f(1)=0 and f(-1)=0, the real zeros to the nearest tenth are:

-1.0 and 1.0

Hi can someone help me with this geo question please thanks
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

x = 24 , y = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 13) and 47 + 3x are same- side interior angles and sum to 180° , so

2x + 13 + 47 + 3x = 180 , that is

5x + 60 = 180 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

5x = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 24

Then 3x = 3 × 24 = 72

5y - 23 and 3x are corresponding angles and are congruent , then

5y - 23 = 72 ( add 23 to both sides )

5y = 95 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 19
