Based on the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, how many complex roots does each of the following equations have? Write your answer

as a number in the space provided. For example, if there are twelve complex roots, type 12.
x(x2 - 4)(x2 + 16) = 0 has complex roots

(x 2 + 4)(x + 5)2 = 0 has complex roots

x6 - 4x5 - 24x2 + 10x - 3 = 0 has complex roots

x7 + 128 = 0 has complex roots

(x3 + 9)(x2 - 4) = 0 has complex roots

Answer:

2, 2, 4, 6, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental Theorem of Algebra states that 'An 'n' degree polynomial will have n number of real roots'.

1. The polynomial is given by x(x^2-4)(x^2+16) = 0

So, on simplifying we get that, x(x+2)(x-2)(x^2+16)=0.

Since, degree of polynomial is 5, it will have 5 roots.

This gives us that the roots of the equation are x = 0, -2, 2, 4i and -4i

So, the number of complex roots are 2.

2. The polynomial is given by (x^2+4)(x+5)^2 = 0

Since, degree of polynomial is 4, it will have 4 roots.

Equating them both by zero, (x^2+4)= 0 and  (x+5)^2=0 gives that the roots of the polynomial are x = 2i, -2i, -5, -5.

So, the number of complex roots are 2.

3. The polynomial is given by x^6-4x^5-24x^2+10x-3=0

Since, degree of polynomial is 6, it will have 6 roots.

On simplifying, we get that the real roots of the polynomial are x = -1.75 and x = 4.28.

So, the number of complex roots are 6-2 = 4.

4. The polynomial is given by x^7+128=0

Since, degree of polynomial is 7, it will have 7 roots.

On simplifying, we get that the only real root of the polynomial is x = -2.

So, the number of complex roots are 7-1 = 6.

5. The polynomial is given by (x^3+9)(x^2-4)=0

Since, degree of polynomial is 5, it will have 5 roots.

Simplifying the equation gives (x+2)(x-2)(x+\sqrt[3]{9})(x^2-\sqrt[3]{9x}+9^{\frac{2}{3}})=0

Equating each to 0, we get the real roots of the polynomial is x=-3^{\frac{2}{3}}

So, the number of complex roots are 5-1 = 4

A bag contains 14 gray, 7 black and 10 white marbles. A marble is drawn at random. What is the theoretical probability, as a dec
Dahasolnce [82]
The probability of drawing a black marble is 7/31 or .226 or 22.581%. To find the probability of these type of questions, add all together to get 31, then since there are 7 black marbles the probability would be 7/31.
