Answer:
(2x-1)(2x+1)(x^2+2) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's a trick: Use a temporary substitution for x^2. Let p = x^2. Then 4x^4+7x^2-2=0 becomes 4p^2 + 7p - 2 = 0.
Find p using the quadratic formula: a = 4, b = 7 and c = -2. Then the discriminant is b^2-4ac, or (7)^2-4(4)(-2), or 49+32, or 81.
Then the roots are:
-7 plus or minus √81
p= --------------------------------
8
p = 2/8 = 1/4 and p = -16/8 = -2.
Recalling that p = x^2, we let p = x^2 = 1/4, finding that x = plus or minus 1/2. We cannot do quite the same thing with the factor p= -2 because the roots would be complex.
If x = 1/2 is a root, then 2x - 1 is a factor. If x = -1/2 is a root, then 2x+1 is a factor.
Let's multiply these two factors, (2x-1) and (2x+1), together, obtaining 4x^2 - 1. Let's divide this 4x^2 - 1 into 4x^4+7x^2-2=0. We get x^2+2 as quotient.
Then, 4x^4+7x^2-2=0 in factored form, is (2x-1)(2x+1)(x^2+2) = 0.
Answer:
32/4 7 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: it will trave 56.89 meters before coming to rest.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric progression since the distance travelled (height) by the ball is reducing by a constant ratio, r. Since the number of times that the ball will bounce is infinite, then we would apply the formula for determining the sum of the terms in a geometric progression to infinity which is expressed as
S = a/(1 - r)
where
S = sum of the distance travelled by the ball
a = initial distance or height of the ball
r = common ratio
From the information given,
a = 128/9
r = (32/3)/(128/9) = 0.75
Therefore,
S = (128/9)/(1 - 0.75) = 56.89 meters
Given:
1 - 50 written in red marker
51 - 100 written in blue marker

Answer:(1,23)(2,21)(4,17)(6,13)
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in the x values in the graph to the function. For example plug in 2 to it and you get 25-2(2) which transfers to 25-4. 25-4 equals 21
